Error loading HTML Dataset in Desktop

Link to error message  

 

I was trying to load a dataset with just 2 columns from Azure SQL Datawarehouse table:

 

Table contains just two columns and more than 5m rows.

InvoiceId (int,null)

Comment_Note (nvarchar (max,null)

  

Comment_Note is HTML column with up to 2.8m characters.

 

When I do an M query to load top 5,000 rows, it works fine and the PBIX created is just about 117KB.  

 

From rows 4,000 and above Comment_Note has 2.8m characters.

 

When I increase the number of rows selected to just 5,300, I get the following error messge:

 

Somethig went wrong.   Array dimensions exceded supported range.

 

Other details of the error  and all diagnostics are included in the attachment/Link.
