Hi,
I am importing worksheet from an excel file in access.
When I try to import excel file. I can see below message.

Both the excel file and access files are saved on the same path but in a different folder.
Excel file does not have any formulas or hyperlinks.

Pop-up is as below

Hi Joe,

There is no VBA code in the file. Extension was XLSX. Just saved as XLSB and tried again. But facing same issue again.

Thanks a lot for the help. Have a nice day ahead. :)
