Currently I have the string:
"19:00:06 01.04.20"
I want to convert this to a date, and I use the following function:
t=datetime(my_string,'InputFormat','HH:mm:ss dd.MM.yy')
but i get Error
I would be like to help :)

What is the full and exact text (everything written in red in the Command Window) you receive when you try to define that string and call datetime on it? The text of the message may give crucial clues as to why MATLAB cannot successfully run that call to datetime or at least suggest the next step to take to investigate the problem.

Assign your string to the variable my_string
my_string = "19:00:06 01.04.20";
t=datetime(my_string,'InputFormat','HH:mm:ss dd.MM.yy')
t = datetime

Thank you!
Maybe I made a mistake because it still does not work for me
I read the vector through the excel
I mean I get a string column
Could the answer now be different?

You can use readtable to directly import this column as a datetime. See this page.
