Bug description

  1. Open CSV/Excel upload form
  2. File settings section
  3. Columns To Be Parsed as Dates Image

After changing CSV/Excel upload form there is no need to input column names separeted with comma. There is a drop down list for choosing columns. I suggest to remove the phrase "comma separated" and change the promp to "A list of columns that should be parsed as dates" or just "Select ..."

To update the prompt in the CSV/Excel upload form for "Columns To Be Parsed as Dates" to reflect the use of a dropdown list instead of requiring comma-separated column names, you need to modify the metadata description of the column_dates field in the superset/databases/schemas.py file. The updated description should indicate the use of a dropdown list. Here is the relevant code snippet with the updated description:

column_dates = DelimitedListField(
    fields.String(),
    metadata={
        "description": "[CSV and Excel only] Select column names from a dropdown list that should be "
        "parsed as dates."
    },
)

This change will update the prompt to better reflect the current functionality of the form [1].
