Hi @Anonymous ,

After turning the following function on in Options, connect the excel file again. The date type of the field is displayed correctly.

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,
Henry

@PaulDBrown am also not getting any error in initial load, after data refresh only am getting this.

@Anonymous are you refreshing in Power BI Desktop or Power BI Service?

[Anonymous]

@TheoC in desktop only.

Hi @Anonymous , can you use Find and Replace to remove spaces " ".  This should help. Or simply use =TRIM function on data. Like a space or two that aren't visible causing this.

hI @TheoC , no space found in excel. Cann you please check my uploaded source data.

@Anonymous, thank you for bringing to my attention. I just did some research and many similar issues have occurred due to a bug in the Connector regarding Regional Settings for the date format. The Excel file is DD/MM/YYY. Are you able to confirm this is the same for your Region Settings?
