      When exporting a Smartlist from Excel – the date columns are coming across with the formula as text.  See Column A, H & I


      I’ve checked Excel to make sure the display formulas is unchecked.  I’ve performed the export as SA and the user from 2 different machines and get the same result.  Any ideas on how to get it to export as a date?

      Hi Trish,

       

      You have probably already checked this, but is the field defined as a date in SmartList Builder.

       

      The other item I would check is whether or not if you have

      SmartListEnhancedExcelExport=True

       

      I found this string also if it helps any https://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32/t/119753
