Additional Information

This is a known limitation of X-Ray. X-ray is requires Microsoft Excel and Excel is not able to handle the length of the strings in the provided dataset (annotation). This is also a limitation in X-ray on the complexity of the collection of symbols supported when using annotation. The best workaround is to use ArcGIS for Catalog data management tools to avoid the limitation.

Workaround

Switch to the modal dialog using Task Manager when necessary, and click OK to dismiss it.
