cannot place XLSX table
I'm unable to place an Excel file/table. When I choose Place...select any Excel file (.xls or .xlsx) and check "Import Options":
- Options dialog appears, but no fields are selectable, except decimal places.
- Click OK, and I get nothing. No error message, and no content.
If I place a file WITHOUT options, I get the content of the Excel NOT as a table, but as tab-delimited text. This is not acceptable, as the integrity of the table is lost when I "convert text to table." Where there are (supposed to be) empty cells, data from other cells appears where a cell should be empty.

Hi,
I tried the mentioned steps with the attached xlsx file and it's working in ID 2018 13.0.1.
Please try it in latest release.-Payal

Additional information:
If I Place an Excel doc using emSoftware's WordsFlow, the table imports WITH options exactly as it should.
So now it's time to make the InDesign - Place...XLSX (Excel) function as it should (it worked fine in previous versions of ID).
Still frustrated...
