Changing Date Type when importing Excel spreadsheet

When I import a file using the Import Spreadsheet Wizard and I get to the
Field Options screen where it allows me to choose the fields and the Indexed
option, my Data Type option is grayed out. Shouldn't I be able to change
data types at that stage for each field as opposed to waiting until the data
is uploaded and changing in the table properties? Can someone tell me how to
turn that option on. Save a lot of time. Thanks
