Inputs Data Type

hi,

 

I am tasked to input all files from a folder. But Column A in one of the files is treated as a different data type which stopped it from being inputted into my workflow. How can I resolve this?

 

Input tool on all files - reading from \[folder name]\*.xlsx

File No.5 is not read in here
