In a form control connected to SharePoint list, I want to change a field from text control to a date picker control. How do I change it to a date picker?

I connected a form control to a SharePoint list where one of my fields should be a date picker control, but because the settings in SharePoint is single line of text for that field, it appears as text control field. How do I switch it to a date picker?

 

I tried inserting a date picker, but it doesn't replace the text control, but appears on top of it. Any help, suggestions, or videos on this would be much appreciated.

    Never mind! I didn't see a date/time option on SharePoint. Solved my issue!
