Exporting Excel Spreadsheet from Numbers

How do you export to the .xlsx format? The choice now appears to only be the older .xls version of Excel. The only way I've found is save is to open the .xls in my 2011 Excel and resave as the .xlsx format.

No specific reason at this time to have to save it as xlsx. I see .xls shows Excel Workbook 97-2004 on Numbers and also as on Office for the MAC Excel's on the "standard" format list. Just seems like there was some reason .xlsx camre about. 97-2004 is sorta "old".
I've had no problem opening Numbers .xls and .xlsx spreadsheets and viewing both those on my iTouch/Dropbox. Haven't been able to open or import a .numbers spreadsheet from Excel 2011 though.

TS1702 when I export my spreadsheets from numbers to excel, it separates every table on the spreadsheet into separate spreadsheets? The export feature to excel is useless to me because of this.

Does anyone know why my spreadsheet from numbers that I created on my iPad using numbers, when I export the file to an excel format it separates all the tables in the spreadsheet into individual spreadsheets. Instead of keeping the multiple tables on the single spreadsheet that I made.

Pop up menus won't export to Excel, just as Excel's data validation (their way of doing drop-down menus) won't import into Numbers. I don't know any way around this other than to avoid pop up menus. But if you are willing to do a little cleaning up after the export, you can recreate the pop-ups as data validation. In your spreadsheet, include a table that has your list of pop up values. In Excel, use that list to create data validation.
Excel doesn't have checkboxes. Often an "X" is used as a "checkmark" in Excel. You can design your Numbers spreadsheet to work the same way. You'll have to fix any formulas that use the checkbox status; the formulas now need to look for "X" or blank instead of True/False.

Exported Excel spreadsheet from Constant Contact, now cannot find it. Thanks!

I exported an Excel spreadsheet file from Constant Contact and now I cannot find it anywhere. Constant Contact verified it was sent.

Best things to have in this situation is a receipt of the shipment of the returned device.
Do you have it? If so go to a Fedex office and file an insurance claim.
If you don't have this..
IF your device tracks anywhere at all on USPS or FedEx's website call customer service and have them submit an ITTS ticket for a lost shipment. If your rep does not do this get another rep on the line. If they have already submitted a CLNR NON RETURN form then you either need the receipt of the shipment or need it to track on the carriers website.

Linking Excel Spreadsheet to Numbers

I know how to place an Excel Spreadsheet into Numbers and subsequently save it as a Numbers file. Once the Numbers file is established is there a way to export data changes made while working in the original Spreadsheet in Excel direct to the Numbers file created without resaving a new file in Numbers ?

Hi Lawrie,
Numbers has a different philosophy from Excel. I find Numbers has a certain charm with its small, discrete tables on a canvas, instead of sheets that are "oceans" dotted with "islands" of data. Numbers allows data input tables, "engine room" tables where the serious number-crunching happens, and "presentation" tables for results.
Happy Numbers, and thanks for the two gold stars.

Ian

PC excel spreadsheet to Numbers on iPhone...will it automatically update via iCloud?

If I upload an excel spreadsheet from my PC to Numbers on my iPhone....then make changes to the document using my iPhone....will iCloud automatically update the original file saved on my PC or do I have to download it from iCloud and replace the original file on my PC?

So, I do download it to my imac, make changes, save and then 'move to icloud'. But I don't see the changes when I open the spreadsheet again in my numbers app.
Seems to not be working properly.

How do I download a excel spreadsheet from my iPad back to my Mac Pro laptop

how do I download an excel spreadsheet from my iPad back to Mac Pro. the tech at the store showed my how to upload but not down load.

It kind of depends on how it is setup to sync. You can try to reverse his steps.
If you have icloud and use numbers - it will be done by icloud and you don't need to do anything
If he used file sharing in itunes, you need to drag that document backwards.
You can also email it.
And perhaps there are other ways as well.

How to open Excel spreadsheet in Numbers.

Hey Kids:
I have trouble opening imported Excel spreadsheets in Numbers on my iMac. I have Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Previously I tried a demo of Office Mac that has expired. When I try to open an Excel spreadsheet I get a message to buy Office Mac. I've tried to put the demo application in the trash but I still can't open the Excel spreaddsheet and get a message that Excel is in the trash and can't open the spreadsheet.
HELP!

In addition to what Niel said...
In the Finder, click on an Excel file (.xls) to select it, press command-I to Get Info.
In the Info window, expand the Open with...section.
Click the pop-up menu bar in that section and choose Numbers '09.
Click the Change All button below the menu.
Repeat with a current version (.xlsx) file.
Regards,
Barry
PS: Unless you have something vital that you're storing in the Trash, you might also want to Empty the Trash to get rid of the Excel trial that's expired.

Moving Excel Spreadsheets from Work to Home

I have had this problem for the past month. The problem is when moving Excel
spreadsheets from home to work only (1) out of (6) will not open. It says there is not enough memory. The other spreadsheets are larger so I know the allocation is ok. The work computer is an IMac running system 9.2, the home
computers are a G4 IMac and a G3 IBook. Both of these are running Tiger 10.4.4. These spreadsheets open on both of these Tiger computers.
I use a 128MB USBDrive for moving files back and forth. One thing I have noticed recently is that when opening at work the Icons say PC. I have a newer version of Excel at home, cannot load that version at work because it is not compatible with system 9.2.
Help????????

Hi, klugej -
I don't use OSX, so can't suggest a method there. However, in OS 9, try highlighting the icon of the drive (click on it once), then select Erase from the Special menu. With luck, that will offer one of the Mac formats (probably Mac OS Standard) as well as MS-DOS.

As for the "Session could not be started for iPod" problem, just (Mac OS X only):
1. Quit iTunes.
2. Open Terminal.
3. Copy and paste into terminal:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes DeviceBackupsDisabled -bool true
Hit Return.
4. Open iTunes.
5. Make sure iOS device is plugged in and let it sync. That command that you needed to copy and paste into Terminal will disable the backup process when your iPod is plugged in and syncing.
6. Quit iTunes after iPod is finished syncing.
7. Return to Terminal and copy and paste the same command, but change "true" to "false". Hit Return.
8. Open iTunes.
9. Backup should go smoothly.

Can I open an excel spreadsheet in NUMBERS complete with formulas?

Can I open an excel spreadsheet in NUMBERS complete with formulas?

Problem solved. I find that the excel file I was trying to convert was an .xlsx version and when I resaved it as an .xls file, I was then able to open it in NUMBERS complete with formulas.

Automatically open excel spreadsheets with numbers

can anyone tell me is it possible to set numbers as the default application to ALWAYS open excel spreadsheets? each time i try to open an excel spreadsheet the computer starts up the trial office software. I then have to cancel and choose "open with" and then set "always open with" numbers.
Having just converted from Windows, I was able to set certain programs to always handle specific file formats, e.g. .jpg, mpeg, avi so I did not have to choose the program every single time i wanted to open a file.
thx., same goes for pages ,in lieu of word?

Select an Excel file and option-select (Right Mouse Button) and select Get "Info". See attachment below to set "Open With."

Opening Excel Spreadsheet from ABAP

Hello,
Is there any way to put data from an ABAP program into an existing Excel spreadsheet? I know how to put the data into a new spreadsheet but my users want to put the data into an existing spreadsheet where they have developed macros.
Thanks,
Becky

Hi Becky
Here is a procedure using OLE automation.
DATA gs_excel TYPE ole2_object .
DATA gs_wbooks TYPE ole2_object .
DATA gs_wbook TYPE ole2_object .
DATA gs_application TYPE ole2_object .
CREATE OBJECT gs_excel 'EXCEL.APPLICATION' .
SET PROPERTY OF gs_excel 'Visible' = 1 .
GET PROPERTY OF gs_excel 'Workbooks' = gs_wbooks .
GET PROPERTY OF gs_wbooks 'Application' = gs_application .
*--Opening the existing document
CALL METHOD OF gs_wbooks 'Open' = gs_wbook
EXPORTING #1 = <file_path_var> .
"*--After this point you can go on processing the sheet
using OLE Automation techniques"
If it is just the template to be stored you can save the template .xls file at the application server each time downloading it to a temporary place to open. Or you can store it at SAP Office templates folder. For SAP Office operations you can inspect "BC_SO_*" masked FMs.
