    Table names in formula

    =Table_Query_from_MS_Access_Database[[#This Row],[Rate]]*B12
    Still frustrated by absurd assumptions made by MS developers. But, I have unchecked the [ Use table names in formulas], etc. Still getting table names in formulas and [#This Row] that I do not care for either.

    How is this bug feature disabled?

    TIA

    Did you create the link prior to disabling the feature ?

    (If I disable the feature and subsequently create links to Table objects I do not get Table references)

    Yes, the link was created then the discovery and attempt to correct.

    Re: Table names in formula

    Retrospectively it won't convert formula references from Table to Range unless you convert the Table to a Range directly - which given the data is sourced externally you won't want to do (you will lose the connection)

    If you re-create the link the Table references should be removed.

    Thanks, I did re-create and the lengthy appends are gone.


    BTW: Trying to go to [Edit] [Go Advanced] to identify thread as solved. There is no [Prefix] drop on the subsequent page as directed in Forum Rules.
