**Example**

In this example, we will pass a date time string value to the function transformation object using a *Variables* object.

Where,

*dateTimeString* = 2009 10 AUG 05:09:17 PM

*offsetString* = 10:00

In the output window, you can see that the provided date time string value has been converted to a date time offset value, of the specified *offsetString* value.
