    Sir,

    I have prepared a MOM(meetings of meeting) in Excel where Micros and VBA module are being used, so the file extension is saved .xlxm format. That MOM is saved under a SharePoint folder. Form this MOM i want to establish auto reminder mail to the responsibel person based upon the reminder date. This thing I want to develop with power point. While creating the function list of rows present in the table we need to browse and select the excel file from folder but it is not reflecting

    Based on the name of the activity being List rows present in a table, I assume you are trying to build a Power Automate cloud flow, and not a desktop flow (meaning you're in the wrong forum).

    Unfortunately, the Excel online connector for Power Automate does not support macro-enabled files. The only options that you have for this are:

    a) Run a desktop flow to read the file

    b) Use an office script to read the file

     

    Option a) can be quite a feat to establish if you are not already using desktop flows, because that requires a more expensive license, as well as a machine to run the flow on.

    Using office scripts is thus likely a better idea. See here for some references on how to do it: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/scripts/develop/power-automate-integration
