Excel not "format as table" at the beginning

Hi,

 

I have run a PowerBI for some years, however, I have not "format as table" of the Excel files initially,

 

what will happen if I do it (format as table)now, will it break down?

 

Regards

Ryan

Hi @RyanLau ,

 

I have a test on myside. Here I get data from a excel sheet and then I create a table on this sheet.

Now we can see the table"Test" and "Sheet5" on Navigator at the same time. And the data we load from the sheet before can refresh successfully. It is still get data from excel sheet.
