Copy and Paste Excel Data into an Adobe Lifecycle Table

I've created a form in Adobe LifeCycle that includes a table. I've set up the table so that they are fillable Text cells (5 Colunm's worth). What I need to do is Copy data from Excel and paste into the Adobe Form's table (with the same headings). After realizing that it would only paste all 5 cells of Excel data into 1 Adobe Form's cell, I tried merging all 5 Adobe Form cells. That smushed all of the Excel data and still isn't usable.
How can I create one text field object for each column in the spreadsheet when pasting from Excel into an Adobe Form Text Table?

You can't ....you have to do cell by cell copies

  • Copy and paste excel data into database

    We have moved from the oracle7.3.x and forms4.5 to oralce8i and forms 6? In the 7.3 and 4.5 enviroment being accessed via a terminal emulator, we were able to copy and paste into the fields for input. by using escape sequences
    eg.
    =CHAR(27)&"OP"     =PF1
    =CHAR(27)&"OQ"     =PF2
    =CHAR(27)&"OR"     =PF3
    =CHAR(27)&"OS"     =PF4
    =CHAR(27)&"[1~"     FIND
    =CHAR(27)&"[2~"     INSERT HERE
    =CHAR(27)&"[3~"     REMOVE
    =CHAR(27)&"[4~"     SELECT
    =CHAR(27)&"[5~"     PREV PAGE
    =CHAR(27)&"[6~"     NEXT PAGE
    =CHAR(27)&"[A"     UP
    =CHAR(27)&"[B"     DOWN
    =CHAR(27)&"[C"     RIGHT
    =CHAR(27)&"[D"     LEFT
    =CHAR(13)     RETURN

    Hi Sharon,
    Did you ever get an answer to this issue? Everyday I hear from users of the forms i create, that they would like to be able to copy cells from an excel workgroup and paste them into the table of a form. I have even had people refuse to use my forms just because they cannot do this.

  • Adobe Photoshop asked me to copy and paste a URL into my "browser" to confirm my e-mail address. What, and where, is my Browser? How do I do that?

    Upon register with Adobe Photoshop, they asked me to copy and paste a URL into my "browser" to confirm my e-mail address. What, and where, is my Browser? How do I do that?

    If this has arrived in an email from Adobe, it's probably legitimate.
    Usually though, you can click the link and it will confirm your registration automatically.
    Otherwise copy it and then paste it into the location bar.

  • Copy and Paste Multiple lines into a single cell

    Folks:
    I need to copy some plain text data into a single cell that has been merged with other cells to provider a larger unit; however, every time I copy and paste my data it gives me an error. In addition, if I paste the data into a single cell, the next line
    of data inserts into the next row.
    I understand that Alt+enter is a quick way to do what I want, but I already have the data typed out, and I do not want to type the data again.
    Example: (If possible I want in one single cell)
    Disks=32
    Total space=1.74TB
    Used space=1.20TB
    Free space=0.54TB
    Thank you!!!

    Is there any way to do this but keep the source formatting? I don't see any "Paste Special" options when you do it this way.
    That is not possible - when you copy/paste this way, you only copy the plain text, not the formatting. You'll have to apply formatting to the cell with pasted lines from scratch.

  • Is there a way to copy and paste excel table contents to a pdf table form?

    Is there a way to copy and paste excel table contents to a pdf table form?

    It's not something I have tried before.  Have you tried it, and what's happened?
    Basically, copy/pasting tables is a bit of a problem - anywhere.  Table formats are different in different circumstances - Excel, HTML, PDF, ...
    If you copy a HTML table and paste it into an Excel sheet, the entire table will go into one single cell.
    So most likely what you are trying to achieve will not work.

  • Cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail

    I cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail. Neither from using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the Menu function. I can copy and paste from other applications into Mail- but for some reason, text copied from a Word document (both in .txt and .doc formats) will not paste into an open email. Anyone else have this issue? It's a new issue. I used to be able to do this easily.

    I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

    Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?
    At the moment it just appears as "Vector Smart Object" in Photoshop and I have to take another step and change the layer name.
    Thank you!

    Not that I know. PS doesn't care for these kinds of things and uses its own naming system.

    Sounds like you are not in Mountain Lion and have updated to Pages 5 on Mavericks.
    Images in cells ahs been removed by Apple along with over 90 other features in Pages 5.

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • When I copy and paste the data from a web site in to excel, it comes in one big splurge - ie it is not 'delimited' - and I can't see how to delimit the data into cells. In Explorer, the data is delimited. Any clues ? John

    see above

    A couple of options:
    # When pasting the data into Excel use Paste Special, and choose either Text or Unicode Text.
    # Use the Dafizilla Table2Clipboard extension to copy the data - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/dafizilla-table2clipboard

  • How to copy and  paste the data directly from the excel to the PDF?

    hi,
    I have found the same question on the link:
    How to copy excel sheet to pdf form?
    But I didnt get my answer through that forum.
    My requirement is dat I should copy the data from excel sheet and directly paste it to PDF form.
    When I am trying to copy and paste ..all the data is getting pasted into a single block only.
    Kindly help.
    Thanks & Regards,

    So you want the user/person to do the "cut&paste" action (ie. ctrlc ctrlv) and have the data paste itself across rows correctly much like Excel does. I don't think this "intelligence" is built into Adobe table controls as it is in Excel (and Excel is smart enough to even handle it different ways depending on how the user selects cells).
    The only thing I can think of is that you could "capture" the user trying to paste into a cell/row in your table (maybe in the onFocus or onClick events), then grab the data, parse it out (but looking for some character) and then have your code distribute the data across the rows. However, I personally think that would be a lot of overkill and prone to other issues and errors.

  • How do I copy and paste from Word into Adobe Photoshop Elements 13

    using Windows 7 Professional SP1, Microsoft Office 365 (Office 2013).
    I can copy the text within a word document, without a problem.
    However, the paste options are greyed out and "Ctrl"+"V" does not work.
    Am I missing something, as I can't work out how to copy the text from word, to use as a basis for my photo shop document.

    Hey, guys. I am a complete noob to Elements 13. I need to get something done relatively quickly and I need to learn how to copy and paste from a Word document. How do I do this?
    Copy the text in WORD to place it on the clipboard
    Open PSE in Expert tab
    Open your picture file
    Get the type tool out of the tool box, click an insertion point
    Go to Edit>paste
    You should see two layers in the layers palette: background layer, and layer with the text.

  • HOW CAN I COPY AND PAST A LINK INTO/ONTO A FORM???

    I use acrobat X and have created froms to fill out and email to clients so they can review differnt real estate properties and i want to past a link at the bottom of the form. When i receive an email alert about a new property there is a hyperlink in the emailand this is the one i would like to copy and past onto tthe PDF form described above. i do not want to nake a permanent link on the form as the info will change with every email i receive. if i copy the hyperlink into a text boc it only comes up as text. i can't believe it is so hard to do this. If i copy the link into word or excel and then save the file as a pdf the link will work but then i can't use the form. OMG please help!!

    Acrobat is not an authoring program like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. So extensive editing is not possible.
    How do you want the link to look?
    There is a link tool that can insert a link around a location.
    You can create a button form field and customize the displayed text and create an an action to execute a link.
    You can create a text field and enter text into the field and create a mouse up action to execute a link actions.
    Links in PDF can do much more than open a web page.
    As noted you can create a form and replace the content layer and retain all the form fields and actions.
    If you convert a Word document to a PDF make sure you set the PDF Maker conversion settings include the conversion of web links to interactive links.

  • Copy and Paste images to Word using Adobe Flex3

    I am trying to copy the images from Adobe Flex 3 application

    Could you please provide me an example for how to do this

    Thanks,

    Good question.  Make a local copy first, i.e. drag to your Desktop,  then drag to Word.
    If that does not work, open the image>command-A>copy  and paste into word.
