I'm trying to convert cells containing this type of data "April 1, 2008 3:42:37 PM GMT-04:00" to just the date as mm/dd/yyyy. I've tried text to columns convert to general and convert to date. Still not working. Any thoughts?

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Try something like this...
=LEFT(A1,FIND(", ",A1)+5)*1

Format the cell with this formula as a date.
