I run Omniscope on a local machine and also on a remote session on a Windows server. I have Excel installed locally but Excel is not installed on the server. If I create a data model on my local machine which points to a date in the format dd/MM/yyyy and subsequently open and refresh that model on a machine without excel then it fails as the Omniscope reader will interpret a date in the format dd/MM/yyyy as dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss. I set the reader to Excel as Text (if available). Should I by default set the reader to Omniscope if I think a file may be used on a machine which doesn't have Excel installed. Are there any limitations to the Omniscope reader? Would it be possible for the Omniscope reader to work the same way as Excel? I have attached an example and screen shots. Please note I have un-ticked the auto recognise dates.

Many thanks
