Report Builder Not Working At All Now

Hi,

Went from RB v4.7 to v5 after the release since it seemed like it could be hugely beneficial but apparently Adobe released a very faulty and buggy piece of software. So uninstalling it and going back v4.7 created a huge amount of issues, none of which resulted in RB working.

Long story short, new laptop running Win 7 and Excel 2013 (About reports 32 bit version) and neither v4.7 or v5.0 (further, not even 32 or 64 bit versions) work. Nothing. Doesn't come up on the Add-Ins tab; going to add-ins under options shows that sometimes Report Builder bridge is active, sometimes inactive, sometimes not there (depending on the install or its mood).

This is hugely frustrating and I desperately need help. It would be enough just to get back to where I was before this mess but I can't. I am loosing a lot of time since many Excel dashboards are build around RB and they just cannot be run.

Please help.

Hey

This is an incident that contains an issue.  Unable to get any data since upgrading it just sits saying "retrieving data".

There is a workbook attached to the ticket.

Cheers

Now we can refresh reports, but it still takes longer time than earlier to refresh.

The 'blank cell' issue is reported as fixed with RB v. 5.0.25. However, I still see it as long as regional settings of windows isn't the same as OS & Excel language. Does anyone see any improvement on the 'blank cell' issue, without changing regional settings?
