@Gokul_Murali,

You will have to use Excel Process Scope activity Format Cells

The image shows the "Format Cells" dialog in an Excel-like application, with options for setting data type and custom format, and an area to specify the source range. (Captioned by AI)

@Gokul_Murali,

If the columns are in consecutive sequence like this

A spreadsheet with columns labeled "My Column," "D1," and "D2" containing dates from December 19, 2024, to December 31, 2024, with the headers highlighted in yellow. (Captioned by AI)

You can Format Cells using Range like this

But if they are apart from each other, you will have to use multiple Format Cells.

  1. Using read range activity store the data in a variable DT1.
  2. using For each Row in Data table = row in DT1.
  3. using Assign Activity and write the conditions-
    row(“Column2”) = DataTime.ParseExact(row(“Column2”).ToString(),“dd-MM-yyyy”,System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).ToString(“yyyy-MM-dd”)

if any query you ask me .
