    Hi @goliaaat,

     

    I saw the error was from the field of picking tables in excel file. Have you made sure that you have formatted the data as table style  in Excel?

    Afternoon,

     

    I was puzzled by this for a bit too, but worked out the issue. Certainly for me anyway.

     

    To resolve this, it seemed to be caused by the formatting of some of the data within cells in my table. Namely emails had been converted into hyperlinks. Once I formatted thema s plain text. It stopped this issue.

     

    Just need to be careful when modifying\adding cells manually that may convert data to hyperlinks.

    Easy way to remove Hyperlinks from Excel sheet:

     

    • Press Alt+F11 to open the VB editor.
    • Add the VB sub below and Save. Ignore macro-free worksheet error if prompted, unless you want to save this macro.
    • Close, then go to Macros and run the macro. It will remove all hyperlinks from the active sheet.

     

    Sub RemoveHyperlinks()

     

    ' Remove all hyperlinks from the active sheet.

    ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Delete

     

    End Sub

     

    Based on this video: How To | Remove all Hyperlinks from Excel - YouTube

    Worked for me 🙂

     

    Good luck!
