I'm trying to use the Set File Time menu option under Edit -> Advanced, using a value stored in a custom column, that's represented by a custom property entry. I do understand that when using Custom for any of the date fields, if referencing an another existing column you must use a format like this one: $property-system:system.itemdate:
I also understand that the date/time entry should be formatted as ISO 3601.
In this case what I'm doing is using REGEX_EXTRACT to pull the date value from the filename, and then joining that date value with a 'dummy' time for the rest of the ISO 3601 string (because I don't care about the exact time). I have this being calculated in Column1, but because I'm having issues, I also added a Column2 that just formats column1 column using FORMATFILETIME (likely incorrect to do this)
Neither is working - what syntax or what am I missing to allow Set File Tame to use a custom column value to set date-created:?? I want date created column to reflect the date time in Column 1
