Bing in Excel Maps
Hi, I am currently making a statistics map for Germany's regions, and Excel is a great help but unfortunately when I try to add statistics to its region "Thüringen / Thuringia" Bing cannot find ...
Riny_van_Eekelen Thanks for the file! It worked just fine. However, when I tried to follow the manual on Office 365 support, there was an advice to define the data as Geographical, that's what I did. In attachment you can find my file. Thuringia is still not recognised by Bing Map in there.
It's better not to complicate, Map Charts is much more sensitive to column names and fulfillment of data. Check two charts at the bottom - one is with adding the country, another not. All the rest is the same, but second one doesn't recognize Hamburg.
As for Thuringia, Geography data types recognizes it only as Thüringen (I guess that is correct German name), but not as German state, as municipality in Austria. Most probably the issue is here.
