Hi there,
I have imported an Excel table and I can only see my data in Edit Query. When I close and apply from there, the data table is still not visible.
I'm sure this is something simple. I have deleted the data and imported again, reinstalled Power BI Desktop, and cursed. None of those things have worked. Thanks!!

Using 32-bit to match our Office, if that matters.
Nope, that's weird alright. Can't say I have seen that one. I use 64-bit version. Does the same thing happen if you save your Excel table to a CSV and then try to import that?
Same thing. I have been playing with this file for a bit, and I am pretty sure that I imported it once before and all was fine. I updated Power BI yesterday, that is the only thing I can think of. I will try installing the older version (January, I think) and see if that works. I only get to "play" with this when I have extra time, so it can be hard to tell when an error occurs.
I updated mine today to April release and I have been able to import and everything works fine, but I'm on the 64-bit version.
It must have been something with that particular file. It was 35MB, so I split it into different files and all is good.
