Using .xls files with Sharepoint Connectors

I am using the Sharepoint connectors to connect to a database filed with .xls and .xlsx files.  I am able to import and use the .xlsx files but not the .xls files.  I have separated them with a filter tool.  What would be a efficient solution in the same workflow.  Thanks.

Hey @mzrickers,

Is your problem that the SharePoint connector is not letting you import .xls files into Alteryx?

Thank you for the prompt response.  My lead is using a Generic tool with XML and a Python engine and it feels way over my head.  We are also not using the same working environment presently, so I have no idea where to put any of my relative or absolute paths.  When I get to working with the actually data and leave the inputs behind I will breathe a sigh of relief.
