Hi, when I import table data from an Access database (17 columns, 184 rows), one of the columns shows all values as error. I am then presented with this error in the Query Editor:
DataSource.Error: An error happened while reading data from the provider: 'Conversion failed because the Decimal data value overflowed the type specified for the Decimal value part in the consumer's buffer.'
The data type associated with this particluar column in Access is Calculated with the values being decimal numbers. There are other columns containg whole numbers that appear as Calculated. Their values appear in the Query editor as 0 however there is no associated error displayed.
I can see the correct data when I inspect the table directly in Access and I can also see the correct data if I import the table into Excel. Not sure what is going on here and I cannot find much looking online.
Just to make sure I wasn't expecting too much, I downloaded a trial of Tableau Desktop and all data imports correctly. This suggests it is a Power BI issue.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
Adam
