    The problem went away when I installed the 32-bit version of PowerBI on another machine and used the same saved Power BI file.

     

    Still pointing to the same SQL Server database on Azure. 

     

    The error is gone. Not sure why.

     

    When I open the same file from the 64-bit version, the error remains. 

     

    The 32-bit version is available here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45331

    as the PBIDesktop.msi file.

I am having the same aforementioned issue with applying ZIP code to the "Location" field.  It worked for approximately a day and now it causes the "filled map" to crash on a regular basis.  The issue will stabilize if I filter down the input field with slicers.

 

This is super frustrating, because there ins't a clean alternative as it relates to mapping a zip-code.

 

Regards,
