Question

I have two columns in a view which give me date parts.

They are month number and year.

I need a new column which is a date/time field. it needs to be the first of the month and year the other two columns provide.

i.e 4, 2011 need to be

2011-04-01 00:00:00.000

in the new column

Current set up looks like this:

month_number    incident_year
4   2011
5   2011
6   2011
7   2011
8   2011
9   2011
10  2011
11  2011
12  2011
1   2012
2   2012
3   2012
4   2012
