Attaching a file to a numbers document - possible?

I am creating a list of serial numbers for different software I have purchased online. Two of the programs I bought online require that you open a file that contains your serial number and when you open it, the serial number automatically gets applied to the program. I assume I could just open that file in text edit and copy down the serial number but it would be easier if there was a way I could "attach" a file to my numbers document. The files are very small. Is this possible?
Thanks you in advance

You can't attach a file to a Numbers document.
With the original structure, if you add such a file in the document's package the app will do a logical cleaning and remove it.
The new structure is simply the old one packed with a specific tool so, we can't compact a package by ourself to rebuild a flatfile.
So, happily, there is no way to use iWork documents as trash for this or that garbage file.

  • HT3350 what can you do when you get this warning? "Scouting Book  Collection Index" could not be handled because Numbers cannot open files in the "Numbers Document" format.

    “Scouting Book  Collection Index” could not be handled because Numbers cannot open files in the “Numbers Document” format.

    This file was created in 2002 in MSword but this had been forgotten.
    When I went to open it.... (MSword) was not a program option on my laptop. For some reason, I assumed that either Pages or Numbers wouild open the file. How the file was created was forgotten and had no file Info, but I new that it was a table of valuable information.
    The warning threw me off, because it led me to believe that it was a Numbers file. which Numbers would not open. A paradox.
    I took the file to a laptop in OSXpanther with MSoffice and it opened in MSword. Problem Solved.
    Thank you for your help.

  • Attach a file to a document using metadata

    Hi experts
    We have a problem related with metadata. Our business case is to create a custom metadata for documents in KM. This metadata should allow users to attach related documents to an existing document in KM (the document we are creating or modifying).
    We tried to implement this business case by the following way:
    We created a new Property metadata of type String and assigned an attachment property renderer. While uploading a file, we got an attachment UI so that users can attach other documents (by uploading them or by linking to existing documents in the KM folders). After saving parent document with all this metadata, we try to display document properties, and all custom properties are displayed but not the attachment property/related documents...
    Is the attachment renderer designed for this purpose? Or maybe do we forgot to customize something? We haven't found any documentation/samples about predefined properties and renderers...
    Any help/suggestion is welcome...
    Thank you very much

    Does anyone have a response for this issue?
    Or, as a workaround, is there another way to create a metadata property for attaching a file to another KM document?
    Thank you very much

  • ICal To Do Items.  Attaching a file.

    How do I attach a file (pages or numbers) to a to do Item so that when I am going to work on the item I have all relevant files handy.

    There is a url field - drop the file there and you can subsequently click on it to open the file. If you need more than one you could put the filenames in the Notes field, and then use Spotlight to find them.

  • Is there any way i can keep pages documents and numbers documents in the same file?

    Im trying to group pages and numbers documents in the same file is this possible?

    Not on the iPad itself, no. iOS apps keep their documents within each app itself. You would need to save the documents to a WebDAV server. Dropbox can serve this function if partnered with DropDAV. See:

  • Possible to update Numbers document from PHP database?

    Hello!
    I've been hoping to figure out a way to do this: I have an online php database attached to a webstore that contains product inventory. I have an offline Numbers spreadsheet that we use for keeping track of our inventory.
    Periodically I have to manually update the Numbers document with the current inventory from our website (as stored in the PHP database).
    Is there a way to have the Numbers document "automatically" update the values of cells based on the contents of the PHP database?
    Ideally (and I know this is probably not possible) I'd like the Numbers document to be the "front end" for controlling the values in the PHP database -- so I can view current inventory in the Numbers document, and can update to the PHP database FROM my Numbers document if I decide to manually change some inventory numbers.
    Theoretically it's simple: attaching a specific cell in the Numbers sheet to a specific value in the PHP database... but I have no idea if there's an actual way to make this connection...!
    Or maybe I'm just using the wrong software?
    Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

  • Cannot attach pages/numbers documents using .mac mail online

    When I go to attach a file to an email created using .mac online, all pages and numbers documents are greyed out so that they cannot be selected. word and excel (and pdf's) are not greyed out and CAN be selected. anyone notice this? any reason why?

    Gregory,
    After I read your post, I tried it for myself, and got an error message that the file could not be uploaded. Then I tried making an archive of the file, and the worked perfectly.
    In the Finder, control-click on your Pages or Numbers file, select Create Archive of (your file name). Then email the archive.
    Pages files are packages (so I assume Numbers files are too), and they need to be archived before emailing.

  • Is it possible to link and update external files in a Indesign document when sharing the Indesign file in Creative Cloud with multiple users?

    I am new to Creative Cloud, but have been using Adobe software for many years.
    Now we are considering sharing an Indesign file with my project group using CC.
    The Indesign file contains links to external files (one Illustrator and multiple .txt files); and we export the approved version to an Hi-Res PDF.
    These .txt files are currently hosted on our internal server but have not been linked directly: we first copy them over to local desktop and update the links in Indesign before creating a new PDF. 
    Since these file can be update by different people we would like to keep them outside the Indesign and Illustrator files.
    Is it still possible with CC to link directly to the files on our server in Indesign and see if there have been updated?
    Or can they also be stored in the CC cloud? Or is there another method?
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions
    Ronald

    This will work if you all use the file syncing of the Creative Cloud desktop application and then you use the Collaborate option for the folder containing all the files. Then it will work on each of your desktops.
    Links to files will not work in the browser when viewing the InDesign document from https://creative.adobe.com/files.

  • Attaching large amounts of text as either a file or or pdf document.

    Good Evening!
    I would like to attach a file (.txt, .rtf, .doc, or .pdf) to provide additional information to a database record. I'm wondering what is the most efficient way to do this. It would also be nice to be able to search the document. I know that I can attache "key worlds" to the document, but I would prefer to actually be able to search the content.
    Any Suggestions?
    Thanks,

  • Can't open numbers documents, says index.xml file is missing?

    can't open numbers documents, says index.xml file is missing

    I came across this problem after upgrading to Mavericks.  Here's what I did to solve the problem:
    Issue:  I began working on an existing spreadsheet.  After I saved it and tried to pull it up again later, I got the message "index.xml file is missing...".
    Go to your dock and delete the icon for Numbers (mine still referred to the previous version of Numbers). 
    Go to Applications and drag the Numbers icon to the dock.  This icon now links to the new version of Numbers and  (hopefully)  your spreadsheet should work.

  • Unable to attach a file document without full data path (vers 8.0 beta) | Likely, based upon user testing.

    For the last two days I have been unable to attach relatively small Acrobat PDF or document files to my outgoing emails.
    This could be a problem with the Firefox browser (v8.0 beta) or Windows. Mozilla Firefox v8.0 beta has latest updates,
    AT&T "Mail.Yahoo.com" will not upload any files to the website for sending; the DRAFT email message can be stored as usual. "Mail.Google.com" also exhibits the same failure, however GMail allows the user to revert to "classic uploader" and the file can then be attached with the tag showing "the full PC data path".
    Both email access attempts were using Mozilla Firebox v8.0 beta.
    In the first example (AT&T) I was able to compose and save the draft email without attachments, then process the email normally (attaching the file) from my Nokia Smartphone using Symbian OS6.

    It should be noted that I can't repeat the behavior on my test machine again today after some changes were made in our environment.
    Today, I found that someone had modified permissions on the folder to give the group my test account was a member of rights to traverse the folder hierarchy from the root of the share.  Additionally, in testing something with FIPS mode, I ended up reverting
    my virtual machine to an older snapshot.
    After removing the extra permissions that weren't present when I was doing my testing and reverting to the older snapshot, I  am not having issues accessing the real equivalent of folder3 directly in Windows Explorer via DFS UNC path or creating a shortcut
    with the New Shortcut wizard.
    Things have been fundamentally changed and I cannot repeat the behavior on this particular folder.  I will see if I can recreate the same situation on another folder.

  • How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

    How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

    You will (often) see a preview of the attachment, depending upon the file type.  To get rid of the preview: control click on the attachment select "View as icon".
    (What the recipient of your message sees is dictated by that person's email application.  If you want to make sure the person gets an attachement which is not previewed, you can zip it (control-click, "Compress...") and then attach the zipped file(s).  Or you can try something like Attachment Tamer.)
