Hai all,

I have converted .XML file into .XLSX and uploaded. Then date has picked as test format. Can I change it in QVD.

Provide any sample data and with the help of Date#() and Date() function you can achieve this.

when you read from xlsx

use an interpretation function Date#(string, format) to convert from string to number

date#( A, 'YYYY.MM.DD' )

where A=1997.08.06 returns 35648

Load *, Date(Date#(Date,'DD-MMM-YYYY'),'DD/MM/YYYY') as NewDate;
