I do not think your can,but you could try User Defined Fields and Global Change to put the dates into the field or try displayinm other date fields such as Actual and Remaing Dates, but displaying these get problematinc as they either display blanks or the wrong dates. For Example the Early and Late Dates do not display Actual Dates correctly.

If you post the report to Excel you can remove the "*" and "A" by using find and replace.

To remove the "*" you must use the find option of "~*" and thne Excel will specifically look just for the "*". If you do not use this option the all data will be removed. Leave the Replace with field blank.
