Cannot Use Excel Files in Pro Anymore...

DJB — Mon, 20 Mar 2023 19:07:47 GMT

After installing ArcGIS Pro 3.1.0 I can no longer access anything that deals with Excel files. I can't add Excel tables to Pro anymore and I cannot import Excel tables into GDBs anymore (Excel to Table).

I found the following workaround https://support.esri.com/en/technical-article/000027949 but am still getting the same issue. I've installed Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 and still no luck.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Those database engines are for ArcMap. I've never had an issue with bringing an Excel table into Pro.

ETA: See Dan's post. I did hve to install a 64bit driver when I upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 3.0

Hey Dan,

I came across an earlier post of yours just a moment ago. I'm going to try and uninstall Pro and reinstall it now that I have all the additional files installed.

Fingers crossed that this will work.

Thanks Dan
