Hi All,
I have built Power Queries between excel files in Office 2013 and refresh them in windows 7 office 2013. I have users who are using a mix of Windows Office and Mac office and I have noticed that when my Mac users open and edit the files they somehow break the power query connection. Is there a way to prevent mac users from destroying the power query connections? Simply editing and saving the file seems to destroy the connection and the queries ability to load to the sheet. I found a similar post from 2014 about Microsoft query but I had hoped Power Query may have fixed this. It seems to be a bug that has not been fixed for quite a while.
