Hey @kathbanc

Converting it to a string and then to a date again (w. seperate tools) might help. Saving it as a string (if this is possible) will also work. 

Also, why are you saving to a .xls? Could you try it with a .xlsx instead?

@kathbanc Add a select tool after the input tool then try again
