Bing Maps doen't recognize locations
Hi all, Windows 10 fr, Excel 2016 fr. Any location is "not found", whether it's towns, countries, postal codes etc. Has anyone the same problem ? Thanks in advance.

For testing purposes, i'm using the same data shown in the example : https://1drv.ms/i/s!AqRP0RQrhNWWyAmsAuMHDG80dP99 I connect to Bing Maps using the Insert, Bing Maps icon. I also suppress the Bing Maps App and recreates it to no avail. The error is invalid locations (see link).

Daniel, from my point of view that's buggy and ugly add-in. And not supported by Microsoft, at least no updates from mid of 2014.
However, since have it still installed, i tried - and it works. After the error i just pushed Show Locations button.
If don't use 3D maps and Power View, the alternative could be recently introduced Maps Chart, however it's on preview stage and require O365 subscription.
