I am getting an error message that Excel cannot open my "output.xlsm" file

I am not able to open my output.  I am getting an error message that Excel cannot open the "output.xlsm" file because the file format or file extension is not valid.  Could you please point in the right direction?  I am not sure what is wrong.  The workflow was working perfectly fine before.

Does your file format in the tool configuration match your extension of .xlsm?

Yes.  I selected Microsoft Excel Macro-enabled .xlsm.  My original file has the CSV extension.

Hi @Marcegon 

 

Are you able to download the access drivers to see if this issue can be resolved?
