Hi everyone, I have a question. Can you use Data Link to connect an Excel spreadsheet over a network, or is it limited to just the local drive? The local drive works great using the original method.

Here are my steps when creating a new Excel sheet that is not on the local drive: I enter the network drive's location in the Excel sheet to point to it, and at the end of the location, I add \Bcc Crawl 2.xlsx, but I can't see the agenda items for the meeting.

For example, using the original method, I entered: E:\XPression Projects\Misc\Bcc Crawl.xlsx and it worked perfectly. With the new method, I am using: Z:\\ecsfs3\CCED\COMGraphics\External Shares\Agenda QR Codes\Sample Excel File\Bcc Crawl.xlsx, but it says the file name is incorrect. Can anyone help me figure out what's going wrong?

 Thank you!

I just did a test, I am also having issues with xlsx over network drive but xls works fine. 

Any chance you can use xls format or you need the newer format?

I had the same issue, but was able to get Datalinq Server to access an XLSX from a network drive on my home network by enabling linked connections in the Registry Editor. This may or may not fix your issue, but it's worth a try.
