changes not being saved ??
I am new to DeskTOP BI but an Excel guru. I thought this would be easy, ha ha ha. The interface isnt easy....
I load a csv from my PC. It seems fine except, header row is being treated as data. Dumb program, it is a csv.
Anyway, I used a query to "delete" first row and renamed cols from "colum 1" to appropriate. same to other cols also.
Now the problem, I save it as a pbix file, BUT when I come back and open this file, the header row is present and cols are back to "column1 " etc. In short, my changes were not save.
Now I am afraid to do anything meaningful since changes are not being save.
Whats up??

You can use promote header to get column header, try this:
- go to query editor
- click down arrow as shown below to open a menu
- Select "Use First row as headers"

Thanks, I've got that now.
BUT
AFter making that change, saving, and exiting the DskTop prog, it is gone when I come back 1 hour later.
why not saved?
