XLSB file date getting error

Hi Everyone

me again! 🙂

i have got a project that need to get the file from the sharepoint (because, we update the sharepoint regularly)

and then, the format of file is XLSB

 

I have a got a problem that the date type, when I try to change it from text to Date format, it got a error, not sure if any way could fix it?

Thank you!

 

in the Sharepoint Excel, this is what it is showing

@Ericwhv , Try datetime or time.

Also, click on the empty space near to error and check and share the error
