Visual Studo 2019 issue

I try to compile with visual studio 2019 bu have somes issues with AddinExpress.
with which version of VS is compatible.
Thanks.

Running under Windows 10 says "Installation directory must be on local hard drive".

I can't seem to get the MSI installer working; it always gives this error on install:

Installation directory must be on local hard drive

I've tried all sorts of directories on drive C:, and I've also tried running as administrator (with no luck).

it wont work....

Sheet Changes tab is not available in excle2013, no changes can be written back to sql server.

Updates

Hi Pieter-
I have to say we love your product! You noted on the site future updates such as additions and deletions. Is that something you're still planning to add? It's a feature we know we'd use on a regular basis if it was!

Thanks!

Adding Create table

Hi it would be nice to have an option to create Table sql as well.

Not Commiting Changes back to Sql Server Database

I'm using Excel 2016 32bit and SQL Server 2012. When I change the data in excel, it is not writing the data back to the SQL table when I click the green arrow.

Plugin is not tracking the sheet changes

I can connect to my SQL server and load a table. However, when I make changes to the table the Sheet Changes tab does nothing when I click Refresh List.

Am I missing something?
