Database Connection to Excel (1 Viewer)

[MattBaldry]

Hello all,

Not sure if anyone is going to be able to help here. I have an Excel spreadsheet that links to data in access. This week, it no longer works. Just says unexpected error (Send a Frown).

I have tested it on other data sources and it is the same issue no matter which database I connect to. I even built a brand new database with 1 table, and cannot even connect to that.

I uninstalled office completely and then reinstalled it, but still not working.

Has anyone else had any issues like this? Error code is below.

Container exited unexpectedly with code 0xC000041D.

Windows Update?

I was thinking that, but it is working on another client with the same setup as mine.

You cannot say that unless you check the update list?
I have just bee upgraded? to 20H2, and that changed a default on my system.

Hi Gasman,

I have been on both of those links and tried all fixes I have found on the internet and nothing has worked yet. One of them did post that his system one day started working again, which is why I think it may be some sort of update that will get a fix. It is annoying though.

Tell me about it. I was wondering why some default had changed?, however not as annoying as your problem.
