Small bug Speckle Excel connector

Hi,

Figured there is a small issue when deserializing objects looking like dates e.g. 2 - 8 (see range) like in this example

.

It’s being deserialized as the 8th of February, which is not correct.

[Edit: there was a stream here] here you can find the stream.

Hey @dirksliepenbeek I could replicate but I would also blame Excel for this :slight_smile:
If you set the destination cell as “text” then the values are recevied correctly:

I’m afraid it’s outside the scope of the connector to be sending the formatting of each cell, so you just need to apply it before receiving.

Hope it helps!

Thanks for the reply! No problemo, I’ll just let the users know.
