Error Connecting To Tally (Accounting Software) using ODBC
- 9 years ago
Hi Swapneel (and thanks arify for your help!),
In the future, please use the Issues Forum for reporting bugs or issues like this one. Link: http://aka.ms/issues.powerbi.com
This Community Forum is aimed at allowing users to interact/share solutions or questions for how to achieve something with Power BI, rather than reporting specific bugs (we have a whole separate forum for that :))
Thanks,

Thanks again arify.
No, Tally does not have a table named "Null".
Below is a screenshot of the tables it contains, which I was able to access via MS Excel > Data > From Other Sources > Data Connection Wizard.
(But Excel gives me the same error as PowerBI, when I try to connect via ODBC.)
How do I explain the issue with the Tally ODBC driver? Can you help me put it into a few words?
I can then contact the Tally Customer Support and seek their help.
Thanks again.

I only had one last thing to say, and I couldn't find any thread that was opened in the uservoice, so I may as well just reply here the last time :)
This looks like a bug in the ODBC driver, and it's too critical for us to work around. You should contact to whomever made this driver and tell them that "SQLTables call returns null for table names".
Thanks
