So i use date format mm/dd/yyy but the report i am exporting us using dd/mm/yyyy + the time, so it comes out like this
10/02/2025 16:21:21 +0000

that record is for Feb 10 not Oct 2

i dropped the date with the Text to Coulmnm fixed width (although im sure there is a much better way to do it)
but how can i format the date to understand that thats not Oct 2?

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
The last step of the text to columns wizard allows you to specify that a field is a date and what format it is in:
