Placing Excel Spreadsheet resizing

We are using INDCS3 and have created an Excel spreadsheet exactly to size (inches). We created a new IND document (preference set to inches) and when we do a PLACE it places the file, but shrinks it down to the columns are smaller and the fonts are too big. How can we get this to place correctly.

Create a PDF and place that. InDesign will turn that Excel sheet into a
native object and sizes etc will change to adapt to the document.

Place Excel Spreadsheet in ID

Hi,
Can an Excel spreadsheet be placed into a InDeisgn document without losing the formating of the Excel spreadsheet?
Thanks,
Barb

How do you place it as a formatted table? We haven't
done this before.

Embed Excel spreadsheet in .INDD?

Hello,
I'm wondering if it is possible to embed a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet into an .INDD file?
I would like to provide a link within my InDesign file so they can click it and open an Excel spreadsheet.
I know it would be possible to do this in the final .PDF, but what about the original .INDD?
-Brad

You have asked two different questions with two different answers.
InDesign treats placed graphics differently than placed text files or spreadsheets. Graphic files can be embedded, but other kinds of links cannot. So you cannot embed the spreadsheet file inside the InDesign file such that the raw .xlsx file can be extracted later, No.
However, you can produce a link to the spreadsheet file such that you can rightclick and choose Edit Original and have the file open in Excel.
To do so, go to Preferences > File Handling > Links: Create Links When Placing Text and Spreadsheet Files and check the checkbox.

Excel Spreadsheet Journal Import

I'm trying to debug an issue related to using the Excel Spreadsheet Journal Import. Where does the validation take place? I'm using Financial 9.0. But what actually happens when you click the import button? It looks like an XML message is sent. Does anyone know if this happens and if so what the name of the message is that is supposed to handle the incoming message??
Thanks all in advance!!

Kathleen,
No, Data Merge won't do. The context of need in this case is placing an Excel spreadsheet into InDesign; with Show Import Options turned on; with the workflow idea of bringing it in unformatted; yet applying a pre-made TableStyle to it.
It turns out in this case that you have to follow up with selecting the first row (the header row) and clicking on Table > Convert (something or other) and choosing Header, thus turning the header row into a mechanically-repeating row (as in the case of a very long table that flows over more than one page).
You can do this in advance if it is a Word doc table. That is, it can be set in Word before placing. Apparently you cannont do so in advance in Excel.
Therefore, upon placing, the TableStyle appears to fail to some degree until you catch up with the Header Row conversion.
Best to you,

I'm not sure if this would help:
* Create the heading row content on the master page, either as literal text in a text frame, or as a text variable.
* Use Data Merge multiple records per page mode on the body page.
This creates a pseudo table heading above the merged data on each new page. You'll have to adjust the height, vertical justification, and text wrap when defining the master page text frame text wrap to force the merged data to begin below it on the page.
If you truly need a table, perhaps because some column content needs to wrap within cells, then "never mind." But if that's not the problem, perhaps nested and GREP styles could manage the formatting you need.

Office 2013 x64 - Inserting Excel spreadsheet into OneNote

Hi - I'm inserting an Excel Spreadsheet into OneNote, using the following commands (in OneNote):
Insert > Spreadsheet > existing > (locate it) > insert Spreadsheet
The Spreadsheet is inserted, but the "preview" below displays only upto the first 95 rows by 29 columns
I only noticed this when I was exporting my TechNet Keys to XML, then into Excel, then Excel into OneNote, and noticed that the Spreadsheet preview only went down as far as "Visio Professional" i.e. it didn't show the rows with
"Windows ... keys"
Worse still, is that there seems to be no indication (eg. scrollbars), that Spreadsheet preview isn't showing all the data
Is there any way to change this 95x29 cell preview? - I would like to see more rows (29 columns is way enough for me)
I've tried dragging the border, but that just resizes (zooms) the view
I know I can click on the Excel icon, and open the Spreadsheet in Excel, and see all of it,
but I like using the Spreadsheet preview (as it syncs to OneNote on my mobile, and is viewable without actually opening/editing the whole Spreadsheet)
- any ideas ?

I realize this is an old post, but I came across it trying to solve the same problem and came up with a solution that might help others. Hope it helps.
If you define a Table in the spreadsheet, you can choose to display it in the OneNote and it will show the whole thing.  You can also define multiple Tables and choose to display them also.
To create a Table in a spreadsheet:
Highlight the area you want to show
On the menu bar choose: Insert > Table
Fill in a name (for example: TechNetKeys)
Hit OK
Save the spreadsheet and return to OneNote
Right-click on the preview of the spreadsheet
Choose "Select What to Display..."
Uncheck "Display Everything"
Uncheck "Sheet1" (assuming your Table is on Sheet1)
Check "Sheet1 TechNetKeys"

Writing two arrays to a Excel Spreadsheet

Guru's
I am trying to take information from two arrays and write them to a spreadsheet. One array generates the headers information for the columns, the other array is a random number generator. The number of columns and rows are input from the front panel. The first column of the chart is time at some multiple (interval) input from the front panel
The problem I am having is timing the data out of the loop at the same time so they write together. One loop writes first and the other is left out. The data is going out to an excel spreadsheet. The data is correct for the headers and the columns, but won't write together.
I have only been using LabView for six weeks and have spent a good portion of this weekend working on this problem.
Attached are screen shots and the .vi of the problem. Explanations of each loop are writen in the block diagram.
Thank you for your time and help!!

First let's talk about the code flaws:
Placing a text decoration over a path constant does not turn it into a valid path constant.
All your controls belong outside the loop, because it would be really bad if they could change during running of the loop. This is also less work, because LabVIEW does not need to re-inspect the control during each iteration.
Your while loop should be a FOR loop because the number of iteration can be calculated before the loop starts. This eliminates checking for termination.
You are not writing any excel files. You are just writing an ASCII table, but you possibly force excel to open it via a fake file extension. (this might be OK, but make sure to NEVER save it later as excel or the file structure would change dramatically).
"# of rows" and "# of machines" should be integers (blue).
Don't be afraid to brance a wire. You don't need any local variables if you do so.
To determine the order in which the segments are written to the file can be determined by dataflow if you wire it correctly. Wire the path to the write function that needs to write first. Then use the path output of this function and wire it to the next instance. Now the second instance must wait until the first one is finished.
(Currently you are branching the path wire, and the execution order is random!)

Can't paste copied entries from online CSV file into Excel spreadsheet (chatted with zzxc on 5/3/10 at around 2.30 CST but got disconnected. did not get an answer ...)

Here is the transcript of a chat with Firefox community member zzxcon May 3/10
You are now chatting with Firefox community member zzxc
zzxc: Hello
zzxc: What happens when you attempt to download a .csv file?
seegal: hello
seegal: it doesn't copy
zzxc: how are you trying to copy?
seegal: pls bear with me I'm a slow typist. Just copy selected text
Biolizard has joined the conversation.
zzxc: ok - which text are you selecting?
seegal: I reconcile my checkbook (spreadsheet this way). I copy the items in my online bank acc and paste it to the spreadsheet
seegal: I'm using Firefox /2.0.0.19. Have no problem to do this.
zzxc: Which version of OS X?
seegal: In all newer version nothing happens when trying to paste- just doesn't paste
zzxc: Firefox 2.0.0.x is no longer supported, and hasn't been supported in over a year
zzxc: Paste into Excel, from Firefox?
seegal: Sorry, I'm ahead... /2.0.0.19
seegal: Yes. I open my bank acc in Firefox
zzxc: Which version of Excel?
zzxc: It would really help if you could tell me step by step what you're doing.
seegal: First re: your previous question: it's OS 10.4.11
seegal: About Excell: it'as 2004 version - the lasat one produced for Macs. The specific version is 11.3.7
seegal: So I open my bank acc online in Firfox (my primary browser). I copy the latest entry in the account and paste it into my Excel spreadsheet.
zzxc: so, you copy direct from the web page without downloading a CSV file?
seegal: What do you mean by downloading to CSV file? I could export from the https://chat-support.mozilla.com:9091/webchat/getimage?image=sendmessage&workgroup=support%40workgroup.chat-support.mozilla.comFirefox to the CSV file, but the other way around?
zzxc: Are you copying your bank statement directly from the web site to Excel using the clipboard?
seegal: sI don't use the clipboard. This is a mac. There is no need to do that. In PC it would be yes.
zzxc: I need to know the exact steps you're taking to get them into excel
zzxc: And I need to know what exactly goes wrong in the latest version of Firefox.
seegal: Do you have a mac there with Firefox and Excel? It would be very easy to reproduce. Imagine you open an online bank acc, select some entries , click "copy", than proceed to your already open Excel spreadsheet and click' paste". That's it!
zzxc: When this happens, do you get cryptic code pasted into Excel?
seegal: As I said before: in all newer versions starting with 3.0 when I go to Excel to "paste" from my bank acc nothing happens. It does not paste. No, I don't get a cryptic code pasted, just NOTHING.
zzxc: what if you paste into MS Word instead?
seegal: haven't tried that, the formatting most likely would be lost. Tried that with an other Exc el spreadsheet- it lost all the formating and pasted as continous text.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Pls. see copy of the chat above. THIS A MAC OS X. In older versions, prior to 3.0 I could copy from CSV file on the website Ibank acc) and paste directly to my Excel spreadheet to reconcile my account.

EXCEL spreadsheet with MACROS

WILL NUMBERS 2009 SUPPORT AN EXCEL SPREADSHEET WITH EMBEDDED MACROS?

Looks like Excel will get macros back. This is from Wikipedia:
Microsoft has announced that the Mac OS X version will also be released in 2010. Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac will include more robust enterprise support and greater feature parity with the Windows edition. An all-new version of Outlook with full Exchange support will return to the Mac for the first time since 2001 and replace Entourage[47], and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA, aka "macro" support) will return after being dropped in Office 2008[48][49]. There is no public beta for the Mac version,[50] however, a copy of Beta 2 (Build 14.0.0.100326) has been circulated among many Mac file sharing websites. [51]

Excel spreadsheets with macro's

Good day
Excel spreadsheets with macro's created in Windows does not work on my Macbook (excel for mac 2011), even if I enable macro's. I do not create these spreadsheets myself. Cn anyone assist please? Thank you for your time.

Hi,
As far as I known, the macro/Active X control can be used well with both of the Office 2013 and Office 365.
Would you like to share us a sample file that created in Office 2013? I'd like to test it. You can send it via Email ([email protected]).
If you have any update, please feel free let us know.
===========
Update:
I have received your mail and
attachment. Then, I tested it, I found the probably reason.
You were using ActiveX controls in the sample file, and them displayed 4 tabs in Format control dialog box. Next, you created a new Form control, it displayed 7 tabs.
You were using the two type of controls. ActiveX controls and Form controls
are different.
Form controls
Form controls are the original controls that are compatible with earlier versions of Excel, starting with Excel version 5.0. Form controls are also designed for use on XLM macro sheets.
ActiveX controls
ActiveX controls can be used on worksheet forms, with or without the use of VBA code, and on VBA UserForms. In general, use ActiveX controls when you need more flexible design requirements than those provided by Form controls. ActiveX controls have extensive
properties that you can use to customize their appearance, behavior, fonts, and other characteristics.
For more detail information, please refer to the following link:

Excel Spreadsheet as Data Source & Copying that Data to an Existing SharePoint List

Hello,
I have an Excel spreadsheet that I get daily and cut and paste into an existing SharePoint list. Is there a way to make that Excel spreadsheet a data source and copy the data to an existing SharePoint list with less manual involvement?
Tools at my disposal include: SharePoint 2010 Designer, InfoPath, and Access.
I thought there might be a REST method I could use via InfoPath but I'm not aware of any offhand.
Goal is to have a method to upload/overwrite an Excel file (stored in a SharePoint library), every day, and then automate the process of copy it to a SharePoint list (actually overwriting the old data in the SharePoint list).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
We can create a console application and use C# code to read the data from the Excel file and using SharePoint .Net Client Object Model to add the data into a SharePoint list, then create a windows job to execute the console application.

How do I show/refresh data from an Access Web App in an Excel spreadsheet saved in a Document Library on Sharepoint 2013 online

I have an Access 2013 Web App in my Sharepoint 2013 online website. It contains a query to report on its data (several, actually, but let's keep it simple). I want to connect an Excel spreadsheet to the query, visualise the data in pivot tables/graphs/whatever,
save the spreadsheet in a Document Library, and let other team site Sharepoint users open the spreadsheet (preferably in Excel online, but with Excel client if it has to be) and see/copy the data, refreshed with the latest information from the Access Web App.
Simple, surely!
The way I'm doing it at the moment is to create an ODC file to connect to the cloud-based Access 2013 database, save that ODC in a Data Connection Library in the SP site, and use the saved ODC file as data source in the Excel spreadsheet. This works and
successfully keeps everything 'in the cloud' but I can't get it to refresh in Excel Online, and if I open the spreadsheet in Excel Client I have to enter the database password every time to refresh it. I don't really want to issue this password to everyone
who might want to view the data. There must be a better way than this ODC method, I suspect.
Googlings on this have led down various blind alleys - Excel Services, PowerPivots, Web Parts - but I'm stuck on which to follow through. Please, someone, point me to an article/book/website that explains how to do this step-by-step in simple language..
thanks
Jonathan

I don't see any quick way of achieving it - at least there's no such functionality exists in SharePoint. All you can do, develop an event receiver that will update the fields in the list item once the excel file is added/updated. You can use OpenXml API
to manipulate the excel file.
Thanks,

How to view excel spreadsheet in java

Hello
Is there a way to open an excel spreadsheet in java? I don't mean reading and writing from an excel file, but instead embedding excel in java. For example instead of launching excel using the Desktop class and opening a new excel window, Java would open an instance of excel and add it to Jframe or Jpanel. Sort of like what Eclipse does when you Open a file with In_Place Editor. Google returns results on how to use some windows dll file and using active x control or whatnot.. Was wondering if there is a better and simpler way..
Thank you.

When I convert my excel spreadsheet to pdf objects like graphs move down in the page!

Hi everyone I am very new to this! Please help!
I was working with someone who has been migrated to Office 2007. If we create an Excel Spreadsheet and convert it to Pdf all is well. When we do the same with his old files the graphs move to the bottom of the pdf page and any text boxes will change font and the graphs will over run the text. We saved the files as .Xlsm and tried again but to no avail.
Can some one please help?

You posted your question to the forum comments forum. This forum is for questions about these forums, not for questions about other Adobe products.
I am not sure which product you are having a problem with (Acrobat to convert to PDF? Reader to read the PDF? Or the builtin PDF capability of MS Office?), but if it is an Adobe product you can find the appropriate forum from the list of all forums.
