Right click on the Excel cell and then Format the cell to show as a date.

If that doesn't work, then use =date(today(),'mm/dd/yyyy') as your formula.

You can use the date format command right in your formula on the Nprinting side.

You can orient to MM/DD/YYYY or several other combinations to get what you want

Which method did you use to get it to work in Excel? Did you change the cell formatting, or did you change the formula?

It appears that you have an older version of NPrinting.  Should not be a reason why the date formula won't work.   As a work around, you can try to create a variable in your QV app with this data formula.  Make a text box to show the variable so that you can see the correct format.  You can then add the variable to your Excel Template.
