Embed table from Numbers 09 Document
I am using both Pages and Numbers when working with a business plan document. The content of the document is being authored in Pages and the financial documents are being managed with Numbers.
How can I integrate full page tables from Numbers into a Pages document?
With iWork 08 I was copying and pasting dozens of tables into Pages and doing basic formatting to make the entire table visible. I needed to paste these tables in a textbox in order to rotate them to landscape.
Is there an easier way to link these tables in iWork 09? I really like the linking of charts but I do not see any way to do the same for tables.
Any ideas?
Hello,
I have the same problem as you have (business plan...). Very annoying indeed. I already wrote a "pages feedback" to Apple. Perhaps you could do that, too. The more people "complain" the better.
The sad part is that we will probably have to wait for pages '10 to see that feature.
Best regards

How to insert data into a table from an xml document
using the XmlSql Utility, how do I insert data into a table from an xml document, using the sqlplus prompt.
if i use the xmlgen.insertXML(....)
requires a CLOB file, which i dont have, only the xml doc.
Cant i insert directly from the doc to the table?
the xmlgen examples I have seen first convert a table to a CLOB xmlString and then insert it into another table.
Isnt there any other way?Your question is little perplexing.
If you're using XML SQL Utility from
the commandline, just use putXML.

How do I paste a table from Numbers or Excel into Ibook Author exactly as the original?
I am new to iMac and Ibook Author.
I am writing a statistical paper in Ibooks Author.
I have Chapter heading, now section heading and body. I want to paste a table from numbers or excel into my iBook as this has the results of my analysis.
As part of my analysis, I want to copy a 5 column table with 633 rows, which is essentially my table of data. I have the table in numbers and excel.
When I copy the table in numbers or excel, followed by pasting (CmD V) into iBooks, I get the first 20 rows in a table format and the remainder of the table is missing. The table appears to end at the end of the page.
I can not figure out how to paste the entire data as my table.
Its holding me back...
Any ideas?Hello Loquitir,
I am not fully sure if I understand but I gather since there are so many rows only a certain amount fits on a single page.
How many rows does actually fit on a page in iBooks Author?
There is a method that would look pretty cool that is used to create a double page spread that would look great but instead of having a double page you could maybe have three or four pages.
Here is a quick idea that I stuck together, additionally when you are copying and pasting form Numbers to iBooks Author just select the cells that you want.
Copy and paste within iBooks Author and then go back and get the next row of the table that you want.
I hope I am clear in what I am describing.

How can I copy tables from Numbers to Pages without formula?
hi everyone
i need help
How can I copy tables from Numbers to Pages without formula in the cells?Ok... I see your problem... when pasting into Pages, the formulas from Numbers are included. Perhaps this is really more of a Pages question (in which case I'm far from expert). A couple of ideas:
• In Pages, try "Edit"/"Paste and Match Style", which may insert tab delimited cell values (no formulas). Then, if you want the table format back, select these newly pasted tabbed values and use Page's "Format"/"Table"/"Convert Text to Table"/
• In Numbers, before copying, make a temporary table of the plain values first, then copy and paste that into Pages. To do this, select the range of cells you desire in the Numbers and "Edit"/"Copy". Then "Edit"/"Deselect All" and "Edit"/"Paste Values" and "Edit"/"Cut". Now just a table of values is on the clipboard and you can head over to Pages to paste. -
Importing footnotes in tables from a Word document
Hi everybody,
I am new here. Hoping to find an answer for a problem i am dealing with. It's about footnotes in tables from an imported Word document. I noticed there are several discussion about this topic, but couldn't find a satisfying answer. So...
Like a said i am importing a Word document in InDesign. This document is containing footnotes in text and in tables. In the Word document the numbering for the footnotes is for example, number 1-9 in text and 10 in table, 11-15 again in text and 16 in table. In others words, the footnotes both from text and tables are one serie of numbers. When i import this Word text in InDesign the numbering is changing. The numbering of the footnotes in tables starts with number 1. So in InDesign i have two separated series of footnotes. Each starting from number 1. And that 's a problem. I want them to apair as one serie of numbers, including the footnotes in tables. Is there a solution for this problem?
An other minor problem is that the footnotes in the tables appear at the end of the document and not as footnotes. Like I said before two separated series.
At the end i want to change, in the InDesign document, all the footnotes into endnotes. I know how to do that.
Is there a solution? Maybe changing something in Word? (I tried saving as RTF tekst, changing footnotes into endnotes in Word but it didn't help). Can GREP being of any use?
I hope you can be of any help. Already thanks.Support the Improve Footnotes Rally 2010! (Improve Footnotes Please )

Copy a table from numbers to pages only with content
Dear all,
I'm rather new to iWork 08 and now i'm trying to copy a table from a numbers document to a pages document. When i do so it copies the table but with all the formulas and in pages it does not recognize what equals one cell to another. In other words, since the table in discussion has another table beneath it which is linked to with some simple formulas, and i copy only the above table it doesn't know how to link the results to the table below.
To clarify if i copy and paste the whole numbers worksheet containing both tables it pastes into pages in the correct way, all the data being there.
Having said that is there a way to copy only the content from numbers to pages?
I ask this because i can think of no other way to copy and paste properly the table in question.
You can clearly see here what i mean: http://gallery.me.com/bimmered#100024
What you see in the left is the pages document zoomed out to 75%. If you look closely you can see in the lower left of it the unkown data in the table. On the center right you can see the numbers document showing exactly like i want to appear in pages too.
On this pic you can see that copy and pasting the entire table works: http://gallery.me.com/bimmered#100031
So...what's the catch?

How do I copy a spreadsheet/table from one Pages document to paste to another?
Hello:
I am in graduate school and am working on an assignment that requires that I use two different 'templates,' or tables, to analyze data. Instead of filling them in separately and saving as multiple documents, I have created an assignment document with my header. I want to copy the tables from the two 'template' documents and paste them both to my assignment document. I've tried highlighting the table in the template document, clicking copy, and then pasting in my assignment document. Nothing is pasted.
What am I doing wrong?What version of Pages?
What OS, iOS or OSX?
Are you sure you have the Table selected and not a cell or just contents?

How can I import diagramms and tables from numbers to pages?
I'm writing an essay, where I need diagramms and tables in it. I created some cool stuff in numbers and wanted to transfer it to pages. I thought it would be easier, but I don't have a clue how to just import the numbers stuff to my essay in pages. So I tried to copy it, but it looks not that way it looked in numbers. Another problem is: I can't layout the diagramms and tables the way I want (centered) and I need to write a description under it. I tried it with Textbox, but then I just can't group the textbox with the Table.
Somebody with an idea?
Thanks for your help!To get your data from Numbers into Pages is just a simple matter of copying and pasting. Select the cells you want to place in Pages, copy, and then past into Pages. There are a couple caveats. 1) the table you paste into Pages will be pasted inline. You'll probably want to use the wrap Inspector and change it to floating. 2) if the table is too wide you'll have to get creative about how you arrange the data and 3) Numbers lets you insert check boxes, sliders, steppers, and popup menus and these won't show but the data in the cells will.
The charts will also copy and paste - again, you'll probably want to use the wrap inspector to switch them to floating objects. Having made the chart object(s) floating objects, you should have no trouble inserting your text box description, arranging them the way you want, and then grouping.
Just to make sure it worked the way I remembered, I just threw together a quick table and chart in Numbers and then copy/pasted it all into Pages. -

Inserting a table in Pages from Numbers
After inserting a table from numbers, it's sometimes not possible to adjust it's dimensions in Pages anymore. At the same time i can't select most of the options to change the tables layout behavior. When i add a table in Pages all options are available in the same textframe? Can't find the difference...
Any idea?You are right with floating / inline.
But you are not right depending the development of the program. For users edditing text it is completly inapprehensible why the behavior of table adjustements should change, just because it is inline and breaking to the next page, while the same table keeps beeing adjustable when it is displayed on one page again by e.g. adding linies above in the textbox?
That's stupid, like you would judge on Microsofts Word... Programs should support users work and not the other way around.
There is no way to change font-sizes if you can't read the content anymore...

How do I export Dates from Numbers to iCal?
I'm building a spread sheet in *Numbers '08* with +expiration dates+ for many of the line items. I would like to export those dates to iCal so that iCal can _show/send me a reminder on those dates_. I've read that some people may be using a program called Bento to interface between Numbers & iCal. Seems like one should not have to buy an entire software program to export a simple date from Numbers to ICal -- both being native Apple programs.
Perhaps there is a way to get Numbers to send date reminders without exporting to iCal?
Any feedback is much appreciated.Here is the script doing the trick with Numbers '09.
--[SCRIPT createical_events_fromNumbers'09]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : createical_events_fromNumbers'09.scpt

Sélectionner les cellules d'une table de Numbers qui décrivent des 'events'
La table est censée contenir:
une colonne avec la description des événements
une colonne avec les date_heures de début
une colonne avec les date_heures de fin
Éditer la property 'theCalendar' en fonction du nom du calendrier à alimenter.
menu Scripts > Numbers > createical_events_fromNumbers'09
Le script crée les évènements dans iCal
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
--=====
Save the script as a Script: createical_events_fromNumbers'09.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
In a table from Numbers '09,
select cells describing 'events'.
This table is supposed to embed :
a column storing events descriptions
a column storind start datetime
a column storing end datetime.
Edit the instruction defining the calendar name to fit your needs.
menu Scripts > Numbers > createical_events_fromNumbers'09
The script will create new events in iCal.

The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.

There is no paste special function. What you can do, if you accept some degraded image quality, is to take a screen shot of the table (command-shift-4 and then drag with your mouse). Then you can import the picture from the desktop.
To limit the degradation of quality you can magnify the display in Numbers before you take the screenshot. -

Table numbering confusion and how to link to tables in a book/document?
More questions :-(
Table numbering confusion...
I'm porting over (from MS Word) a document that has a bunch of tables in it.
The document currently looks something like this:
1 Major heading
1.1 Sub heading
text for that sub heading that refers to a table that follows (or may preceed) such as see Table 1-1 that follows
Table 1-1
Row 1/Column 1 content Column 2 content Column 3 content
Row 2/Column 1 content etc.... etc.
Row 3 etc. etc.
1.2 Next sub heading
Text to follow that sub head that references Table 1-2 below...
Table 1-2
Row 1/Column 1 content Column 2 content Column 3 content
Row 2/Column 1 content etc.... etc.
Row 3 etc. etc.
2 Major heading
2.1 Next sub heading
Text to follow that sub head that references Table 2-1 below...
Table 2-1
Row 1/Column 1 content Column 2 content Column 3 content
Row 2/Column 1 content etc.... etc.
Row 3 etc. etc.
3 Major heading
3.1 Next sub heading
etc.
Hopefully that makes sense.
Currently it seems that the tables are numbered based on the chapter number with the chapter apparently being set at 2.
I need the tables to instead use numbering based on the heading (Titles) numbers, but can't seem to figure out how to get the numbers set for the tables as I would want them to be.
What do I need to do to make the table numbers reset based on the paragraph numbers (subchapters if you would refer to them that way...)
Thanks again!What is the paragraph format of "Table 2-1" lines?
Table numbering is commonly controlled by two things:
1. Format > Paragraph > Paragraph Designer
[table title para name]
[ Numbering]
and
2. Format > Document > Numbering
The default in Frame is that tables have titles of para fmt "TableTitle", but tables can switch that off, and also be anchored to paragraphs (often Headings) of any arbitrary format name and numbering scheme. -
How can I paste a part of a sheet that I copied in Numers in a pages document without the formulas, simply as text. Used this a lot in Office. When I make some changes in the pages document. f.i. deleting a cell, I don't want to change other cells. Also when I copy a part of a sheet from Numbers and one of the cells that is part of the formula is not also copied, when I paste in Pages it shows as an error.
Hope that You can me help with this.Leon,
There are two solutions to the first question, narrowing to one solution when you have a broken link causing an error.
Here's the "works always" solution.
Copy (Command-C) the table or range in Numbers
Click off the table on the blank canvas of the sheet.
Edit > Paste Values
Command-C
Switch to Pages
Command-V

Jerry
