BPC 7.5 SP11 Patch 9 : EVDRE error for locked workbooks

Former Member

Dear,

we have upgraded from BPC 7.5 SP11 Patch 6 to a new server with Patch 9.

All workbooks who are locked (through the workbook options) and are auto-expand on open give an EVDRE

error on open.

When pressing cancel and refresh manually everything is fine.  The client with patch 9 is installed on Excel 2010

When checking the log on the local PC :

The cell or chart that you are trying to change is protected and therefore read-only.

"

To modify a protected cell or chart, first remove protection using the Unprotect Sheet command (Review tab, Changes group). You may be prompted for a password.#

"

IMPORTANT : the lock has been set only through workbook options NOT through Excel !

Any solution ?

Thanks for your answer Stefan,

the ticket has been opened.

Is there any issue to work with Patch 6 Client for Excel 2010, connecting to a server patched to level 9 ?

thx,

There shouldn't be although there is no QA done on scenarios where the server and the clients are at different patch levels, therefore it's hard to guarantee you won't run into any errors.

I suspect you may be running into a bug. Open a support incident to confirm the issue and hopefully you can get a fix before BPC 7.5 goes out of support in March.
