Hi,

In my automation, I have it opening an excel file. When it located the excel file in the directory and opens it, the "Data Link Properties" form comes up and an excel Book1 with sheet called "thumbs." I do not have any connect to any database and would like this to stop as it is failing my automation.

When I open file manually, data link properties does not appear. I also checked "Data Connections" in excel, there is no database there.

Error message:
