R or EViews? - Excel

[startz]

Wrote out an xlsx file from EViews. R won't load it, giving the following error message:

Don't know if the problem is R or EViews. I have attached the Excel file.

If I open and save the file in Excel, R then reads it in without fuss.

Which R function/package were you using to open it?

This happened both just clicking on the file in RStudio and saying import and using read_xlsx() from readxl::

I know you have written other Excel files from within EViews. Does R seem to have problems with those as well? In other words, does R seem to have issue with all Excel files written by R or just this particular one?

I've examined the contents of your Excel file and the particular file 'xl/workbook.xml' R thinks is missing does in fact exist. So it's unclear as to the exact issue.

R seems to work ok on others.

If you open and save the Excel file, R will read the saved version. Can you look at both original and saved and see if there is a relevant difference?
