A family of Microsoft spreadsheet software with tools for analyzing, charting, and communicating data
Dear Maya,
Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.
Per the description shared, I understand the problem facing at your end where the query properties are grayed out, and I would like to confirm some scenarios which will help us to better understand the situation and move further:
- If you click on the Queries & Connections, does it shows any error at the Queries tab or Connections tab?
- Can I know the Data Source used to get data into the Excel workbook?
- Screenshot of the Excel app Account page. Open the Excel app> Account> Take a screenshot of the Product Information and Version.
- Since you mentioned the workbook is inherited, can I know whether you are have access to the data source connected to the Excel workbook?
We look forward to your response. Thanks for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mia | Microsoft Community Moderator
