sounds like you have this problem: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=15746&p=143918#p143918

you'll have to revert your excel to a previous update

You can't edit a spreadsheet while it's connected.

Well obviously it's physically possible, but if you're changing or referencing cells BA is populating then it's ify. Inadvisable too because if you forget to save it and close BA you don't get a save prompt and you lose your changes.

OK it's doable, but I don't think it's necessarily the best practice for someone who's unfamiliar with it so I was ruling out the grey area.

I almost changed it to 'shouldn't' instead of 'can't' but for once I was trying to do a quick reply.

As sa7med mentioned, if you are using Excel 2016 (Office 365) then it sounds like you are suffering from a bug Microsoft introduced early this year:

You can rollback Excel to an earlier build by using the following in a command prompt:

pushd %programfiles%\common files\microsoft shared\clicktorun
officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.8730.2127
