Hi,
Following error show up:
An error occurred in the ‘Transform File from US_1’ query. DataFormat.Error: External table is not in the expected format.
Details:
Thumbs.db
Is there any way to dismiss the Thumbs.db files once the data is extract from a folder.
I am unable to see the files and do not have admin access to change the set up of the computer so it doesnt create this type of files (Thumbs.db)
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @m_arias,
You can add one more step before combining the files. I think it's good to filter them by extension. Please refer to the snapshot below.
