Hi.,
I have a text which is unstructured like ‘Booking from 01-Mar-2013 to 31-Mar-2013 for a total of 42 hrs’ and ‘Booking for 18-Mar-2013 for a total of 7.5 hrs’ and i want to extract only the Date part Like ‘Mar-2013’.
Can anyone let me know if it is possible using TA transform?? and How??
Thanks

Yes, you can use the Entity Extraction transform found under Text Data Processing on Data Services 4.+ for such a scenario.
Filter Entity Extraction Output – tutorial on how to filter Entity Extraction output using entity types defined by a selected language

Text Data Processing Language Reference Guide contains information about the linguistic analysis and extraction features of the Entity Extraction transform provides, as well as a reference section for each language module

Look for the DATE, MONTH, and YEAR entity types.
