Hi there,
I have uploaded data from Excel to Power BI and for some reason there is blank data showing even though there's no blank data in the excel?
Can anybody help me resolve this please?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @gbarr12345
The fact that you don't see any blank cells in Excel doesn't necessarily mean they aren't there. Sometimes there are hidden blank cells, for example, due to a format applied to an empty cell. To deal with this, you can either filter out the blank cells in Power Query or try defining a dynamic table in Excel using CTRL+T and then import it into Power BI. To assist further, I need to see the file.
