How to copy only few pages to an other file

I try to describe exactly the steps I followed:
I have a file of 179 pages indd. Contains short stories. I used the files to produce a pdf file that I sent to print (a copy of proof).
So far so good.
I also made a blog where I want to publish the short stories one by one.
To this end,
I opened the initial file (let's call it "A") with InDesign
I opened a new blank file (let's call it "B")
I gave to B the same page dimension of A
I have highlighted in A the 5 pages of the first short storie, and with pages / move pages I have moved on B
I have these problems:
1) on B, along with 5 pages that I had highlighted on A, I have also two initial pages that I had not highlighted. Basically I did (I thought to do ) "copy pages from 3 to 7", and InDesign has been copied from 1 to 7.
2) these two initial pages I can not erase on B
3) I then said patiently: now I will produce the html file and then I will take off the 2 initial pages on it.
4) surprise: the html file contains all 179 pages of A!
5) then, exploring B, I saw at the end of the last page, bottom right, a red square that appears to be "brought back" the entire contents of A.
I am at the begenning, so please explain to me as if I were a child.
Thank's

Something is odd.
I have no problem such as you describe using the following proceedure:
Either select the pages you want to move in the pages panel of the "source" document and fromthe panel flyoout menu choose "move pages," or simply enter a range of pages to move in the dialog after selecting the command from the flyout menu.
Choose the new "destination" document and chosse if you will add the pages before or after the exisiting page.
Press OK.
In the destination the pages appear, and frames are threaded if they were threaded in the source, but no text is included in the thread before or after the section that was moved. You would still have any pages that were already in the destination document, but you should be able to delete them. If you have some keep option set to start on next odd page for the first paragraph of moved text, I think ID would add one extra page if the destination starts on page 1 and you move the pages after it, but again, you should be able to remove those extra pages.

    Hi Crushed,
    Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
    Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

  • How to copy only some coulums and rows from excel files to a Oracle Table

    Dear all,

    How about Heterogeneous Services so that the Excel sheet is an external database:
    1- Go to Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Data Sources (ODBC)>System DSN and create a data source with appropriate driver. Name it EXCL.
    2- In %ORACLE_HOME%\Network\Admin\Tnsnames.ora fie add entry:
    EXCL =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.12.0.24)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = EXCL)
    (HS = OK)
    Here SID is the name of data source that you have just created.
    3- In %ORACLE_HOME%\Network\Admin\Listener.ora file add:
    (SID_DESC =
    (PROGRAM = hsodbc)
    (SID_NAME = <hs_sid>)
    (ORACLE_HOME = <oracle home>)
    under SID_LIST_LISTENER like:
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = d:\ORA9DB)
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    (SID_DESC =
    (GLOBAL_DBNAME = ORA9DB)
    (ORACLE_HOME = d:\ORA9DB)
    (SID_NAME = ORA9DB)
    (SID_DESC =
    (PROGRAM = hsodbc)
    (SID_NAME = EXCL)
    (ORACLE_HOME = D:\ora9db)
    Dont forget to reload the listener
    c:\> lsnrctl reload
    4- In %ORACLE_HOME%\hs\admin create init<HS_SID>.ora. For our sid EXCL we create file initexcl.ora.
    In this file set following two parameters:
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = excl
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = 0
    5- Now connect to Oracle database and create database link with following command:
    SQL> CREATE DATABASE LINK excl
    2 USING 'excl'
    3 /
    Database link created.
    Now you can perform query against this database like you would for any remote database.
    SQL> SELECT table_name FROM all_tables@excl;
    TABLE_NAME
    DEPT

    Don't understand exactly what you want to do. Can you restate your question?
    You posted in the OS 10.3 forum instead of the MacBook Pro forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.
    Also you show iOS 6.1.4 on your profile. iOS 6.1.4 only runs on a iPhone, not a MacBook Pro.

    Instead of using "WriteLine," try using "WriteText" ("WriteLine" writes
    TextData into an open file, while "WriteText" writes data to a stream)
    like this:

    myFile : file = new();
