Error when trying to view underlying data

Posted February 5th, 2008 by bfarinella

I am having a problem viewing the data in the workbook this is the error that I get. Does anyone have any ideas what the issue could be?

SQL Server database error 0x80040E07: Explicit conversion from data type image to nvarchar is not allowed.
Error retrieving collation for [FAXmakerArchive [Multiple Tables]] Connection].[attdata].
An unexpected error occurred. The "Show Data" dialog can not be displayed.

Thank You,

Bill

Bill,

It seems like you may have found a bug. If viewing all the columns is not necessary you can try clearing the option to Show all fields in the upper right corner. However, I think you should contact support directly so we can get a better idea of what's going on. You can contact support here.
