Try CrossTable() Load: The Crosstable Load

May be try like this, if you want the header as Date.. (May be there is a good suggestion)

SET DateFormat='M/D/YYYY';

Directory;

T1:

LOAD Num(A) as A,

     Num(B) as B

FROM

[..\Book1.xlsx]

(ooxml, no labels, table is Sheet1);

Let vHeader1=Date(Peek('A',0,'T1'));

Let vHeader2=Date(Peek('B',0,'T1'));

NoConcatenate

T2:

LOAD A as '$(vHeader1)',

  B as '$(vHeader2)'

  

Resident T1 Where RecNo()>1;

DROP Table T1;

After crosstable loading the table you could join with a resident load having a newly created field

Date(yourcrosstabledatefield) as NewDate

Hope this helps
