P6 16.2 - xlsx Import error "The User Preferences used to create this Excel file are not the same as your current preferences"

Hi everyone,

I am trying to import an xlsx file to P6 16.2 and getting the error "The User Preferences used to create this Excel file are not the same as your current preferences." 

Since I thought I could have tampered with the format of modified data in the exported .xlsx file, I tried simply exporting again, saving the same xlsx file without making any changes clicking 'save' button in excel. 

When I import it back, it is giving me the same error "The User Preferences used to create this Excel file are not the same as your current preferences."

However, if I am not changing / saving the xlsx file and importing it back, I see no error.

Hope someone can help to get me out of this. 

Thanks in advance,

MM
