Subject: Excel ODBC query loosing parameter when returning the query result directly to a pivot table.
Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 14:34:28 +0200
Message-ID: <CADKKJw-jc6YCQkqmFrsDye2_qOe6QuP1XoC5f=CxYi_y77dhEQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi everyone,

I am using postgres odbc for quite a while within within excel using
parameters (i.e. using ?s within the query).

When defining odbc queries in Excel I select "PivotTable Report" instead of
"Table", thus creating a pivot table directly without having the raw data
in an extra sheet.

Once created, I can alter the query and define parameter (s)linking to an
excel cell.

Everything works well until I (save and) reopen the file and try to update:
Than my excel crashs. :(

I did find out, that the parameter definition I defined before is empty
when opening the file. When I do redefine it, everthing works well again
until I (save and) reopen the file and try to update: Than my excel crashs.
:(

So it's very reproduceable.

I am using the 32bit driver, latest version and I am running Excel 2010 and
2016.

Any idea whats wrong here?

Thanks
Andreas
