Hello,
I have excel file with three columns "Time", "Altitude, And "Shadow length" that I want to read in Matlab. I tried this commands below, however, the column "Time" format change to decimal number. What can I do to keep the time format the same?
Thank you!
T = readtable('Shadedata.xlsx');
opts = detectImportOptions('Shadedata.xlsx');
preview('Shadedata.xlsx',opts)

One option is to use the datetime 'ConvertFrom' name-value pair. For the ‘value’ argument, both 'excel' and 'posixtime' work, with 'excel' appearing to be correct (in that it gives 15-minute intervals) —
% F = fileread('Shadedata.xlsx')
% C = readcell('Shadedata.xlsx')
T = readtable('Shadedata.xlsx', 'VAriableNamingRule','preserve')
T = 40×3 table

Looks great, Thank you!
my date is 10-Feb-2023, how do I update your code to have someting like 10-Feb-2023 07:45:00 ?
One possible way to offset the data to that desired date is this:
T = readtable('Shadedata.xlsx', 'VariableNamingRule', 'preserve');
T1 = T;
offset = exceltime(datetime(2023, 2, 10));
T1.Time = T1.Time + offset;
T1.Time = datetime(T1.Time, 'ConvertFrom', 'excel')
T1 = 40×3 table

Perfect, thanks a lot!
As always, my pleasure!
I don’t see anything that directly addresses that problem ('PivotYear' would only change the year) and dateshift doesn’t appear to provide the necessary options.
So, I improvised —
T = readtable('Shadedata.xlsx', 'VAriableNamingRule','preserve')
T = 40×3 table

All the times are the same day here, however I included code that will increment the days in the event other data sets would have a midnight rollover. (I have used this approach with other problems.)
