    Don't worry about the warning - it is not related to your problem.

    Are you sure that data is flowing through the pipeline? Try using a data viewer to verify this.

    If you haven't even tried to resolve your issue, please don't expect the hard-working volunteers here to waste their time providing links to answers which you could easily have found yourself.

  • Thanks Phil,

    i thought so the warning wasn't relevant ...

    i do have a data viewer in place that is just before the data exports to excel ... surprisingly all steps go green and the data viewer dosen't even pop up??? :ermm:

  • Got this working ... not sure if i did anything different ...

    the data viewer still dosen't pop up also i noticed the export leaves about top 400+ lines blank while exporting data into the excel sheet ... not a big issue but annoying

  • The blank lines may be because it starts the insert from the end of the Excel file. Although there was no data in the excel file, the xlCellTypeLastUsedCell property may still have been set. Try deleting the spreadsheet and creating a new one with the same name.
