800xa Data Direct Invalid Format String
In Excel 2013 when accessing the DataDirect PPA Process Values or the IT History Values dialog I get the error "Object Browser - An invalid format string was found in user profile, the [Name] category will be used instead!" twice. Other users are not seeing this error.
Please advise.

Hello,
the Region and Language settings can be wrong. Do you have the same Language as the other users, as well as date and time format settings ?
Have you the same language for the Windows installation as the other users ?
You can also reinstall Datadirect software if above was the same.

Following the suggestions posted, I checked the windows region and language settings. These seemed to be normal and changing them didn't resolve the issue. I then accessed the "user structure" using the engineering workplace and found there was no profile defined for my login. I set this to work profile values (the same as other users) and the DataDirect error no longer shows up.
Thanks for your help.

Also,
I get this error "DataDirect Error 1004 displaying history data. Unable to set the FormulaArray property of the Range class." when using Data Direct with Excel 2013. I am selecting a 800xa data point and the AVG1day summary from the history values dialog. Other data points work okay, but on some I get this error.
Please advise.
