Hi,

I'm getting nut with excel date format on import !!!

I have an excel file with a date column DD/MM/YYYY

When I create a connection to the excel file to read this column, it changes the date format to MM/DD/YYYY (I put a dataviewer just after the source connection in the dataflow component).

All my local LOCALEID are set to English UK. I tried to change the administrator account language to British and it changes nothing.

The most weird is when I do a preview on the Excel sheet , the date is OK.

The result is that when I insert the date in the DB, all date where the day can be a month are wrong (MM/DD inspite of DD/MM).

Any clue ?

Chris
