Best way to convert azure logs date time into an excel date time

Question

Hello when I export Azure logs to csv I get this datetime format that excel doesn't recognize as a valid date time format:

2022-10-19T12:05:58Z

Is this the best way to convert this to an excel datetime or is there something simpler?

=DATE(MID(A107,1,4),MID(A107,6,2),MID(A107,9,2)) + 
    TIME(MID(A107,12,2),MID(A107,15,2),MID(A107,18,2)) 
    - TIME(5,0,0) 
    + TIME(1,0,0)

This minus five hours is to convert it into Easter Standard Time and the plus one hours is to account for daylight savings time.

All Azure log dates are in UTC. Take a look at:

=--SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(A1,FIND("Z",A1)-1),"T"," ")
