selecting item from a drop down

Posted on by 2
If I use click link on web to activate and then click link on web with the specific date I am looking for, I can get it to work.
When I select "click link on web" to activate the drop down and then "Set drop-down list value on web page " It says that the list does not contain the option "March 31, 2025" but I know that it does because I can see it.
I have a 4 second pause in between.  When I select the drop down list it says it is an unordered list. Then every item in the list i can see turns yellow, but it says March 31, 2025 is not in the list.
 
I appreciate any guidance.

    Thank you.
    Yes, I have tried formatting it as text and date.
    The field I am trying to work with is the Published Date drop down on this website.

    I agree with @UshaJyothiKasibhotla. Try to check the value with the "Inspect" (press f12) to see what is the actual value since it could be formatted differently
