Dear Professionals,
Ive an Excel report that upon openning produces the following error.
'Errors were detected in file 'T:\Customer .......'
Excel proceeds to strip out the ALL the Query Tables from the report discarding them due to integrity problems as described in the original error.
Query Table 'ExternalData_2' on '[xxxxxx Report - April FY14_v1.12.5.1.xls]SoldTo' was discarded due to integrity problems.
The query tables are connected to an 2010 MSAccess db on a networked drive. The file was created with Excel 2013 on a virgin machine, no add-ins are active. The file is saved in Excel .xls (2003) format.
While the error seems to only make cosmetic changes, the data seems intact. However it is an confidence issue for the end user to encounter such an error as these reports go to external customers.
I've circumvented the error by converting the Listobjects to Ranges prior to saving the file but I'd like to get to the root of the problem please.
Ive looked at disabling the office validation feature, however this is short term local solution that didnt seem to work and not practical going forward.
Also seemingly related, when compiling the report in Excel 2010 it randomly crashes at the point where the .Save method is executed (locally or to network). This crash disappeared when the report was compiled with Excel 2013. I've also not experienced the crash since the Listobjects were converted to ranges when compiling in Excel 2010.
Any help / pointers would be most appreciated.
Kind regards,
David
