Hey _ivanovich_,

I will try and reproduce with readyapi! when i finish work.

However i seem to remember a time when readyapi! did NOT support .xlsx, but supported only .xls for certain things....i think the data driven functionality.. Perhaps this relates to your issue?

I was wondering. Do you have to create an .xlsx/.xls? Reason i ask is thst i always find spreadsheets troublesome relative to csv's. I tend to use .csv's instead as you dont need all the extra import declarations, its less hassle, you don't have to worry about .xls/.xlsx versioning, and you can open .csv's in excel if you want to manually manipulate the testdata.

Ta,

Rich
