Excel files wont load unless saved

Hi, I have xlsx files loading into a QV model. The script allows for 12 header lines:

(ooxml, embedded labels, header is 12 lines,table is [$(vSheetName)] ).

My problem is that unless the excel file is first opened and saved, QV cannot work out how many header rows there are and the script errors with fields not found. I assume this is problem with different Excel versions. I am preprocessing files with a vbscript, but is there another option ?

I feel the issue is with the Excel compatible version, try to let the latest version on the excel and check once
