Hi,

I am trying to run a pivot table using power query. My source data is in another workbook in .xlsb format. When i choose external connections in power pivot and link the data i receive below error message. Has anyone come across similar issue and solve for it?

Have you tried converting the file to an Excel *.xlsm file type and linking to that file?

Is the file in a location that is trusted by Excel?
 
When i convert it to .xlsm file size increase exponentially. File is 185 mb and it reduces to 76 mb when i convert to .xlsb

Yes file location is trusted by Excel.

Thanks
