Description: <p><span style="font-size:11pt;">The scientific equipment returns the date to the viewer in the American format of Month, Day, Year. When importing this into certain software packages, such as MS Excel, dates may show errors. To remedy this, do not open the file, instead it must be imported. To do this, open excel and click on the “data” toolbar. This provides options to import various formats such as CSV. During import you must transform the data. You can then click on the relevant column headings and “change type” using the “locale” feature. It allows the “date/time” to be set to a UK format. This will transform the US format to a UK format.</span></p>
