    Query Editor transforming Cross Tab data but Row header (date) become Text.

    My original data is like Sheet1 which is not pivot table friendly. Hence i tried to use Query Editor to convert to Pivot table friendly data (sheet2).
    However, the Attribute (Column B) become text. And as a result, my pivot table arrangement is not according to date.

    Anyone can teach me how to do? And please let me know which part i have done wrong.
    Thanks.

    Cool Re: Query Editor transforming Cross Tab data but Row header (date) become Text.

    in Q-editor use: Using locale

    then use Custom Format for dates on result table (if necessary)

    Re: Query Editor transforming Cross Tab data but Row header (date) become Text.

    open Q-editor
    select column with "dates" (dd-mm-yy)
    use: using locale and select appropriate zone/country/language

    usinglocale.jpg

    in this case click ABC (left upper corner of this column)
