The LastLogon value in AD, like many other date values, is stored as a
Large Integer, or Integer8, a 64-bit quantity. I doubt that Excel can
deal with those, so the data in your workbook is not exactly what AD
stored.

I suggest you do whatever it is you want to do without Excel, or prepare
the LastLogon as a date string before you go to Excel.
