Dashboard refresh opens files
Hi Noob78,
>>This Access database contains one table (my table) which is originally sourced from excel.
Did you link the excel file to access database and managed the data at excel side, right?(e.g: Creating Access Forms To Work with Excel Data)
If this is a case, I'd like to suggest you import data from excel and remove the connection between them, it may fix the issue.
Abou import data from excel , you can refer to below link:
Exchange (copy, import, export) data between Excel and Access

Hi,
Well thank you.
In fact: I have linked Power Bi to Access (a database which I do not own).
This Access database contains one table (my table) which is originally sourced from excel.
My problem is: although I linked PowerBi to Access, at each refreshing, the original excel file opens up!
Ain't it funny...?
