Detect fields and edit imported Excel spreadsheet

i would like to know how I can detect fields for imported Excel spreadsheets so I can add and edit the spreadsheet

I have an excel spread sheet that i would like to import into form central & I would like the fields to be editable by other users. When i try exporting the excel file as a PDF Form Central I get this message "FormsCentral could not import the PDF document because it does not contain interactive form fields. You need to add fields to your PDF using Adobe Acrobat and import again" Is there any other way for me to do this or do i have to purchase a version of Adobe Acrobat?

IMporting Excel Spreadsheets

Hello
We recently upgraded RH in our company from x5 to HTML 6,
build 099. In a project I worked on with X5, I had imported Excel
spreadsheets saved as html and generated a primary layout without
any problem. However, in 6, when I would generate a layout, it
would get to Updating Files and RH would crash without any error. I
narrowed it down to 10 html files that were all Excel spreadsheets
saved as html and imported into my project in x5. If I deleted
those 10 files, the project would generate the layout. If I
imported any of those files, it would crash again.
To recreate the spreadsheets in RH wold just be too time
consuming, and really inefficient as I expect to get regular
updates on these spreadsheets to have available on this website via
our intranet. Has anyone encountered this before? and
recommendations?
Thanks!

Hi BradPrid and welcome to our community
Did these spreadsheet files have any conditional text
applied? If so, I believe a problem exists with merged table cells
(which seem quite likely coming from Excel) when you use
conditional text.
If you can't seem to sort it, one thought would be to simply
import the Excel HTML files as baggage files. Then simply link to
them or maybe use redirects.
Cheers... Rick

C# Script to open and read an Excel spreadsheet with multiple worksheets

Can someone provide me the C# syntax and Edit Script to open an Excel spreadsheet with multiple worksheets and then using the data to create and output a .csv file? The multiple worksheets contain different data elements that I'll need to parse out and then
store as a .csv file that will then be read to pump data into our SQL Server Database.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

I think this code originally came from Joel, who comes here quite a bit. I'm not a C# expert, like Joe is, but I think this is pretty close to what you want.

Do you need help getting everything into a CSV, or can you take it from here???
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Editing an Excel spreadsheet on a Mac

I was sent an email with an Excel spreadsheet. How do I write on this spreadsheet so that I can email it back to the sender?

Yes, this is a very easy problem. The most popular tool and software to edit and process excel document is Microsft Excel. Just download any excel versia and install it on your computer or other devices to deal with the target excel file. Or if you want to edit and write the excel file in programatical way, you can refer to a certain excel processing sdk.

Export playlist and edit using excel or other editor

I have a lot of duplicates due to the same songs being downloaded through different albums (i.e. greatest hits, compilations).
I have used a playlist to display all songs and then I displayed the duplicates using the "duplicates" function. I would like to export the playlist to some other app where I can sort and filter (i.e name and then bit rate) so that I can edit the list to include the "keeper" tracks from the multiple duplicates. I would then like to import this playlist back into Itunes so that I can have a playlist called "keeper tracks".
Does anyone know how I Can do this? It seems that the playlist is in a UTF-8 type format and it is not showing as individual rows for each track when I try to use an editor.
Thank you

Theoretically you can use the Export command and read the XML into Excel. But it is far easier to copy and paste...
Display the playlist in iTunes, and make sure all the columns that you care about are present. (If any are missing, enable them by going to View > View Options.) Then Edit > Select All, and Edit > Copy.
Now switch over to Excel and Edit > Paste (or CTRL-V). Everything will show up and will be correctly columnized in Excel. Now you can go to town with sort, filter, etc.

How do I validate a field using names in Excel spreadsheet only

I am new to PDF forms and I need to create one with a text field that is validated against a list of 300 names, to ensure the names are spelt correctly by the person completing the form. Short of creating a dropdown box and manually typing in the 300 names, is there an easy way to do this?
I have exported the form from Indesign as an interactive PDF, then created all the fields and now the client has asked for this?? The names are held in an excel spreadsheet.
Also, second questions, is there an easy way to automatically generate a second form, rather than saving each form individually. Basically one person could be completing 30-40 forms which each will need printing out centrally and rather than saving as the name of each person they are completing it for, is there an easy way to do this?
Many thanks for any help you can offer, but please explain simply as I am new to all this.

Thanks Gilad,
Issue 1# - the list should only change a few times each year, so how I will google how to hard-code it in a script as you suggest, sounds just what I was looking for, rather than a drop down with 300 names.
Issue 2# - the form is a certificate with various options on, which are now fields, and each tutor may have between 12 and 60 to complete and then forward back to the office to be printed centrally. So, is there a way that you can automatically create another blank form once one is completed until all the certificates are completed for the number of pupils and then save them all in the one file to email back to the office, or will each one need to be submitted individually for printing.
Many thanks for your help

Numbers will not allow me to edit an excel spreadsheet I have

Can someone please help me before I scream.
I have set up a spreadsheet using excel on my boyfriends computer as numbers would not allow me to produce the graphs that I required. Long story.
Since completing the spreadsheet, I have saved it on a memory stick and also emailed it to myself. When I open up the excel spreadsheet in numbers, some of headings and labels have moved. I want to tidy them up, however, every time I click on the text boxes, or any other part of the graphs, nothing will happen.
I am trying to finish a dissertation and am about to scream as numbers won't let me carry out such a simple task.
After looking at the help pages, it states that excel graphs are compatible with numbers, but this doesn't seem to be the case for me.
Someone please help me.
Keeley

Thanks SG
Its such a pain as my Macbook Pro only has numbers and pages, and my partner has word and excel, but because I'm completing my dissertation on my laptop, anything do on excel, which I then have to cut and put into my dissertation (completed on pages) throws it all out.
If only Apple and Microsoft would comply with each other, it would make my life a whole lot easier!

Cannot Edit Embedded Excel SpreadSheets

There is a user at our company who cannot open Excel 2010 spreadsheets that have been embedded into Word 2010 documents. Sometimes the embedded Excel Spreadsheet will open with a Picture Tools menu ribbon. Other times he gets an error
message that Excel is not installed on his computer. When other users open the same embedded objects on their computers they do not have any problems. I have replaced his computer but the problem continues with the new computer. I have also logged onto his
computer with a different user account and I do not have a problem opening the embedded Excel spreadsheets. The user has Administrator rights on his own computer. We all have Windows 7 Enterprise and Office 2010 Professional Plus installed on our computers.
Thanks in advance for any assistance with this issue.

Hi,
Try this:
============
1.
Go to Excel.
2.
Click File > Options >
Advanced, then in the “General” section, remove the tick from “Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)“.
For the general troubleshooting, you may refer to:

Hi, i would like to know is there any app that can let me see and edit microsoft excel

hi, i would like to know is there any app that can let me see and edit microsoft excel

Look at Documents to Go Premium Suite in the App Store. That app should be able to edit excel files.

I currently am using Office 2004 student version on a powerpc running version 10.4.11. I have a newer computer w/ intel duo core running 10.7. I want to install Office 2008 business version and share and edit existing excel files. Will I have a conflict ?

I am interested in buying Office 2008 and transferring Excel data from my Powerpc iMac which runs 10.4.11 and Office 2004 student version. I wish to constantly use and update the Excel files. Will I have a conflict?

You shouldn't have a problem, I am running 2008 and all my data from 2004 carried over. Office 2011 will also run on 10.7.

Can you recommend an iPad app to open and edit MS Excel files?

Hi,
I need an iPad app that would enable me to do the following with a MS Excel file:
Import the file from Dropbox
Edit and save the file
Export the edited file back to Dropbox
Can anyone recommend an app that can do the above?
Thanks
Daniel

Thanks for the feedback. I have read the reviews of both apps and they are not that great. The DropBox functionality seems to work finenwith both apps.
I want to use the spreadsheet on both my iPad and PC. The reviews of both apps mention that some reformatting of the .xls file can occur when saving it in the app. Have any of you experienced this? I will only be using the app for simple .xls files with normal/simple formulas. Nothing complicated at all. I might use it for Word files, but I have no use for PowerPoint. The only time I might use the PowerPoint functionality is if I happen to receive such a file via email. I'm still using Office 2003 with no intention to upgrade anytime soon as it is just fine for my needs.
The QuickOffice Pro HD app is currently on sale for $11.99 whereas the Documents to Go Premium app that supports DropBox is $16.99. D2G is an universal app and QOP is not.
Any suggestions on which app is the better one would be appreciated.
Regards
Daniel

How do I import excel spreadsheet to Ipad 2 [numbers] from my PC? can i use itunes?

Hi I'm a recent convert. I have a spreadsheet that I made in excel and want to use it on my new Ipad 2. I think I could email it to myself and open it as an attachment but I'm hoping that maybe I could import it through the Itunes that is on my PC.
Thank you in advance
RWR

You also need an app to edit it on the iPad ... many of these apps (Documents2Go, etc) have their own tools to allow you to transfter a document from PC to iPad. Other possibilities to look at are Goodreader (a PDF reader that is also a file management app) and cloud storage (Dropbox, Sugarsync).

Can not import excel spreadsheet with more than one spreadsheet from an email

i get excel files sent to me all the time by email and have been able to open most of them. Went to a apple store and was told i needed to install numbers app on my iphone 4 to open them up because their was more than likely two or more work sheets in that file. i am on the road and can't get to my imac. I bought numbers did all the updates on the iphone and sync to itunes. it still cant open the spreadsheets if they have more than one work sheet. it does ask do you want to open in numbers i answer the question it starts the import then get error message spreadsheet couldn't be imported. the file format is invalid.
this is frustrating to by an app that was suggested by apple for the solution and it doesn't work.
by the way i have excel on the macbook pro and imac so that is not an issue need to be able to see on the phone while traveling.
by the way it says microsoft excel 97-2004 worksheet 16 kb open in "numbers"
Any suggestions

Hi Caroline
you should be able to apply the exact same principles to your multi query report. The XML will have a main root node and then the results of the queries underneath.
So if you had 3 queries you'd get something like
<REPORTNAME>
<G_FIRST_QUERY>
</G_FIRST_QUERY>
<G_SECOND_QUERY>
<G_SECOND_QUERY>
<G_THIRD_QUERY>
<G_THIRD_QUERY>
</REPORTNAME>
In the template you will be able to map on to the separate sections of the XML very easily.
regards, Tim

Can I cut and paste an Excel spreadsheet or a .word doc into a FormsCentral blank template?

Am having no luck trying to bulk import existing forms made in .xls or .word. This product is of limited utility if I am forced to recreate forms line-by-line.

Hi;
FormsCentral does not support inputing data from other sources. If you can convert the Word or Excel into a PDF with form fields (using Adobe Acrobat) the PDF could be imported, but FormsCentral does not support input of non-PDF files.
Thanks,
Josh
