Same question as when I answered you on the Answers forum!

 

Can you include a screenshot of your data table and describe exactly how you built the map? And what Excel version are you on?

      Thanks for your help Riny_van_Eekelen  

      I tried to add another map to your file and it didn't work for me.  Presume as I am not on Insider/Beta

        JeffIvey9 Indeed you are not Insider/Beta but I'm surprised that Australia is not on your Current Channel version. Can't really tell why. I'd suggest you send feedback to MS.
