Hello guys,
i have the same problem as described in this post:
Analyze in Excel Memory Error - Microsoft Fabric Community
I would like to understand if there are any new insights into how to deal with this problem?
I use Excel O356 64-bit (latest version) and retrieve data from PowerBI into Excel via an OLAP cube. This worked fine until recently. I had a dataset in PowerBI with many queries (queries on Excel tables), the number of which I recently drastically reduced. Afterwards, I added only one query (query on Excel tables), which is now causing the problem.
What makes this strange is:
a) The new query has significantly fewer rows than the old queries I deleted. I also made sure that the table range in Excel is relatively small.
b) As an attempt to solve this, I reduced the number of columns and rows sequentially, so much so that in the end there was only one row and five columns, but the problem persists.
c) I deleted all columns with long text and reduced the decimal places in the Excel table to two.
d) I converted the new Excel file from xlsx to csv, but that didn't help either.
d) DAX Studio didn't identify any problematic data sets.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for refraining from saying things like, "Just use PowerBI and forget about Excel/OLAP etc."
