    Use the "Sheet lookup" field (the right-most field in the grid in your screenshot) to select a sheet that you want to use.

    Hi Martin,
    I know this is an old thread, but I have the same issue.
    The Sheet lookup list is empty!
    On my TEST server, when I select the sample file path, it filles the Sheet lookup field automatically.
    But on Production server it comes as empty (Check the attached screenshot)
    The deferent only is:
    - On TEST server it includes all DIXF components (Service, AOS, and Client)
    - On Production server, I have a separate database server, so I installed only AOS on Production server, but the Service and Client components on DB server.

    @CU01020909-0 Please create a new thread about your problem of the lookup not working in production. There we can also talked about where a client should be installed (it's likely not related to your problem but it's something you should reconsider anyway).
