"Unreadable content"
 

I am trying to create a pivot table for some budget data. I am using the
datasources functionality and have my excel spreadsheet connected to SQL
Server.

Whenever i save my work, close Excel, and then re-open, i get the message
that there is "Unreadable content...would you like to recover?". If i click
yes, it deletes my pivot tables. Why does this happen?

I have already seen the knowledge base article on KPIs causing this, but i
do not even know what a KPI is, so i don't think that is the problem.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.
