I have not made any changes to any Field Name, nor to anything in the data from which the Table was generated. And yet, when I select the 'Refresh All' option, a pop-up displays that states one or more field names are no longer valid.

When I choose the option to continue, I get a pop-up that refers to connections.

There are no connections

When I view the Tables tab, there is a Workbook Data model shown. I never used the Data Model, so I do not know how, or why, this is in the workbook. Could this be the reason for the problem? If so, what is the solution?

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
