Windows 10 and office 2016 - TC 11.20

Hello,

I switched to the new OS and Office 2016 Test crash on error - Unable to connect to the data source. But the items of the document retrieved. Could it be because of the excel opens the meetings???

 

I have Testcomplete 11.20.

 

Thx for advice!

    It would help if we could see the code you are attempting to execute.  Since you're using Office 2016, now, probably the excel spreadsheets need to be opened using a different driver.

      On screen i use Data-driven loop, excel is still open. Pop up dialog with excel is open... etc.

        Close Excel and the pop-up dialog before running your test and try again.  IIRC, the Keyword operation version of the Excel DDT loop uses the ACE driver to Excel.  In the past, I've had problems with that driver if the excel document is actually open when I try to run the tests.
