@Ashlesha-MSFT The screenshot shows an XML file, not an Excel file that the issue was about. Can you please check again that it's been fixed for xlsx, Excel, files? It doesn't work in the tenants I've tried.

@AndreasNorefalk, Just tested it again — the issue still persists for Excel (.xlsx) files. Let's wait for fix. Thanks for pointing this out.
