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.

    I double checked RoboHelps Help...and it says Robohelp for
    Word 6, Build 99.
    Colum...
    Here's what I did (I 'thought', I'd start off simple, lol)...
    1. Start Robo.
    2. Select New Project.
    3. The left panel contains all of the folders (I think its
    called Explorer).
    The right panel is the default Helpfile word document that
    contains the 'welcome' message.
    4. I added my spreadsheet to the Baggage folder.
    5. Back at the word document, I just added a simple word
    'excel'.
    6. Then I highlighted 'excel', Insert->Hyperlink...and
    pointed it to my excel spreadsheet.
    7. Saved it.
    8. Generated it.
    Everything opens up fine in IE. Excel is highlighted blue and
    underlined. But its not clickable.

  • I can not open an Excel Spreadsheet

    I purchased my MacPro last November. I loaded NUMBERS on my macnine as well as PAGES, and KEYNOTE. I was determined to learn these programs and not rely on using MS OFFICE on my Mac. The rest of my office is still using PC/s and therefore when I am sent a document, it is with MS OFFICE. Up until the first of March, I was able to access all documents sent to me, but sometime in March, EXCEL files sent to me gets an error message:
    This document was created with an unsupported version of Excel. Only documents created with Excel ’97 or later can be opened.
    It seems to associate to the upgrade that came out for LION during that month. I have tried everything. My office has tried sending in every format without success. WHAT CAUSED THE CHANGE???
    I would appreciate any help that I can get.

  • HT1338 I have OSX Maverick installed and numbers 3.0. Now I can not open previous excel spreadsheets?

    I have made every installation or upgrade put out by Apple for 3 years. Now my excel spread sheets previously created will not open since I installed OSX. Says I need to install numbers. At the APP store it tells me

    Are you sure you're using Numbers 3.0?  I understand you may have installed it, but make sure you're running the latest version as shown here:
    The latest Numbers may not have made ti onto your dock.  If it didn't, find it in your Applications folder and drag it onto your dock.  You can drag the old version off your dock and dispose of it (from an iWork 09 folder in Applications).
    If you are actually running Numbers 3.0, the Excel file may be encrypted.  See:

    I have been emailed a spreadsheet which I can open on my Ipad and Iphone  but the cells which hold the data are distorted.  I can see the cells clearly on my laptop which has Libre Office on it, but not the Ipad.  Do I need to download an App or convertor to my Ipad and my Iphone?

    Look at the Rccharles answer on this post.

    Also, you can download these free MS Office apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) to view (but not create or edit) these files.

  • Why cant i open my excel spreadsheet in numbers?

    It keeps telling me it cant open spreadsheets created later than Excel 97, but my version IS 97-2004,

    If you are speaking of the encryption of Windows 7, then you don't. (unless you are running Windows on your Mac)
    If you want to use it on your Mac on the native OS X, remove the encryption with your Windows machine, first.
    If it is formatted in NTFS, you will then be able to read the contents natively, but not write to it. You can add an NTFS driver to OS X, or you can reformat to either Mac OS, or ExFAT, losing your existing data on that drive. I used to be a fan of some of the third-party solutions, but have since ditched them, as it takes continual maintenance to retain functionality with OS X updates.
    What you have right this very moment is a drive very much married to Windows, with the expense of not much compatibility to the Mac.

  • 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.

  • I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me?

    I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me? Already changed the extension of the excel document to xlsx an now gives an unknown import error.

    In Excel have you tried saving directly to xls (not xlsx) and opening the xls in Numbers?
    If you have a complicated workbook in Excel that uses lots of Excel's advanced features, Numbers may not be able to handle the import.  It does pretty well on basic things, though.
    If you're just trying to get data into Numbers, then often copy-paste from Excel is easier than trying to open xls files.

  • Can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard

    I can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard. Is anyone else having this problem?
    I have a standard iWork '08 install. Has anyone experienced? And better yet, know of a fix?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Most users who have had a problem opening Office files with the iWork apps after upgrading to Snow Leopard have the problem fixed by updating to the latest versions. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.2 & Numbers 2.0.2. I don't use Keynote, but it should also be updated. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • Open the excel spreadsheet in Excel.

    Hi,
    I am outputing data as an excel spreadsheet via jsp, but there are no toolbars etc available (for sorting, etc) when displayed within the browser.
    Is it possible to always open the excel spreadsheet in the Excel-application (even if the user/client have "Browse in same window" for the file type)?
    Thank you

    May be this could help:-
    The points given below gives idea about how to display the report or
    static data for which data is retrieved in the servlet and printed
    through jsp.
    1. The conversion of report into excel is done by changing the
    setContentType of response
    in the servlet.The mimeType should be added in mimeTypes of application
    server corresponding to the string given in setContentType.The setHeader
    is for default file
    name for excel
    Example:
    response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
    response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment;filename=file.xls")
    Setting Mime type in server(Weblogic):
    weblogic.httpd.mimeType. application/vnd.ms-excel =xls
    2. In IE the excel is directly downloaded and the user explicitly
    saves in the local system.In Netscape the user is given the option to
    open the file or save it to the local system
    3. Note:
    1) It is better if the whole information of the report in a single
    table.
    2) If the application requires both html and excel format of the same
    report to be displayed on certain conditions, it is better to have two
    different jsps one for html and other for Excel since the formatting is
    different

  • 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.
    Regards,
    Ian
