Still old hat here and using the MDB. I am about to rename 800+ Alias' and my worksheet column headings are: Selected (x), Name & NewName - but when Exporting them, with Mode: = Edit, it returns this error:
"Alias Error setting Alias DataSource for alias xxxxx in module yyyyy. DataSource access failed. PIAlias"
I am logged in as an administrator with authority to change tags.
The odd thing is that the Alias Name is being changed but the error message is concerning me. Any ideas?
