Large Excel spreadsheet issues

I have a resume database that I export all the names/ph#'s/email addys to an excel spreadsheet. About 9000 contacts onto the spreadsheet. I bought an application title (Folders) and got it loaded into the folder but the document won't open.
I added another test spreadsheet with no real data on it to the folder and it opened it.
The file is 1.94mb and has no macros or anything like that.
Am I doing something wrong or is there application out there that I can load an excel spreadsheet of contacts into that I can get to open and search by name. I don't want to add these 9000 contacts into my standard phone contacts

You need to ask the author of Folders. That is not an Apple application. If you use Outlook or iCal for your contacts one option is to put those contacts into a separate folder in Outlook or Group in iCal. This will make the accessible in Contacts on the iPhone as a separate group, but won't clutter up your primary contact list.

  • Excel Spreadsheet issue

    Hi experts,

    and in the next to it there are the values.
    Column A           Column B
    Header desc.
                               Value 1

    Do you know some solutions how it can be fixed I expect to be like this:
    Column A  
    Header desc.       
    Value 1

  • Import to new table large excel spread sheet

    Hi
    I am trying to import a large excel spreadsheet to a new table. Using 1.5.4 with patch 2 applied. If excel is "small" all goes okay. If excel workbook is "large" I get to step 1 of 4 but no coumns show up. Also no workbook names. Cannot go any futher.
    Oh yeas I am using windows XP on a novel Network. All current patches applied
    What gives. Is there a setting not quite right.
    Thanks I am trying to learn.

    Apache POI is the Java API To Access Microsoft Format Files. Can you let me know what you see in the command window when you attempt to run sqldeveloper from command window and try to import your xls? I understand the sensitivity of the xls. No problem. Can you provide a general description of the nature of the cell values in each of the 84 columns that you have so that we can attempt to simulate you xls?

  • Troubleshooting issues opening Excel spreadsheets

    Platform: SP 2010 service pack 2. Office 2010, windows 7 on user laptop , IE 9 32 bit browser.
    several users started calling recently about problems opening Excel spreadsheets. They are on different SharePoint sites on the same site collection.
    No changes/patches have been made to SharePoint.
    No changes to the site collection features of configuration of which I am aware.
    The site collection is configured that users clicking on a doc library item opens in the application associated with the file type.
    When I, as a farm admin (which I need to do due to permissions), and I click on the Excel documents on person 1's troubled site, they open in Excel as expected.
    When the person reporting the problem clicks on the Excel spreadsheets, he gets one of two behaviors.
    On the first paginated page (documents 1-31) , if he clicks on an Excel document, two instances of the Excel application opens.
    On page 3 (documents 61-90) when he clicks on an Excel document, the excel data appears within the web page itself with a button at the top that says "Open in Excel". When he clicks that, he gets an error box that states
    To open this workbook, your computer must have a version of Microsoft Excel installed and your web browser must support opening files directly from Excel in the browser.
    This of course is interesting since on the first page, clicking on one of the documents uses the version of Excel installed and opens the file directly.
    None of these behavior, of course, can I duplicate.
    And, just to add another confusing item to the list, if this person goes to a different doc library and everything works fine.
    So this does not seem to be related to add-ons (why would add-ons act differently between sites?).
    The sites that I have examined all have the same advanced setting regarding opening the document in the client app rather than the browser.
    I have not yet started the process of having a repair on Office 2010 be broken in a way that on different pages different behaviors occur?

    Well, after the admins performed the repair on Office 2010, the user was able to click on Excel workbooks and have them open as expected.

  • Excel spreadsheets with macro's

    Good day
    Excel spreadsheets with macro's created in Windows does not work on my Macbook (excel for mac 2011), even if I enable macro's. I do not create these spreadsheets myself. Cn anyone assist please? Thank you for your time.

    Hi,
    As far as I known, the macro/Active X control can be used well with both of the Office 2013 and Office 365.
    Would you like to share us a sample file that created in Office 2013? I'd like to test it. You can send it via Email ([email protected]).
    If you have any update, please feel free let us know.
    ===========
    Update:
    I have received your mail and
    attachment. Then, I tested it, I found the probably reason.
    You were using ActiveX controls in the sample file, and them displayed 4 tabs in Format control dialog box. Next, you created a new Form control, it displayed 7 tabs.
    You were using the two type of controls. ActiveX controls and Form controls
    are different.
    Form controls
    Form controls are the original controls that are compatible with earlier versions of Excel, starting with Excel version 5.0. Form controls are also designed for use on XLM macro sheets.
    ActiveX controls
    ActiveX controls can be used on worksheet forms, with or without the use of VBA code, and on VBA UserForms. In general, use ActiveX controls when you need more flexible design requirements than those provided by Form controls. ActiveX controls have extensive
    properties that you can use to customize their appearance, behavior, fonts, and other characteristics.
    For more detail information, please refer to the following link:

  • How do I show/refresh data from an Access Web App in an Excel spreadsheet saved in a Document Library on Sharepoint 2013 online

    I have an Access 2013 Web App in my Sharepoint 2013 online website. It contains a query to report on its data (several, actually, but let's keep it simple). I want to connect an Excel spreadsheet to the query, visualise the data in pivot tables/graphs/whatever,
    save the spreadsheet in a Document Library, and let other team site Sharepoint users open the spreadsheet (preferably in Excel online, but with Excel client if it has to be) and see/copy the data, refreshed with the latest information from the Access Web App.
    Simple, surely!
    The way I'm doing it at the moment is to create an ODC file to connect to the cloud-based Access 2013 database, save that ODC in a Data Connection Library in the SP site, and use the saved ODC file as data source in the Excel spreadsheet. This works and
    successfully keeps everything 'in the cloud' but I can't get it to refresh in Excel Online, and if I open the spreadsheet in Excel Client I have to enter the database password every time to refresh it. I don't really want to issue this password to everyone
    who might want to view the data. There must be a better way than this ODC method, I suspect.
    Googlings on this have led down various blind alleys - Excel Services, PowerPivots, Web Parts - but I'm stuck on which to follow through. Please, someone, point me to an article/book/website that explains how to do this step-by-step in simple language..
    thanks
    Jonathan

    I don't see any quick way of achieving it - at least there's no such functionality exists in SharePoint. All you can do, develop an event receiver that will update the fields in the list item once the excel file is added/updated. You can use OpenXml API
    to manipulate the excel file.

  • How do I generate a data merge in InDesign from an excel spreadsheet which includes a barcode

    Can you please advise if the following process is possible within InDesign CS 5.5? (Mac OS 10.8.2).
    We need to create a data merge that includes a barcode. The data merge is for several thousand records.
    We have a customer-supplied Excel spreadsheet that contains seven fields, one of which is a number that ultimately needs to print as a barcode when we make the data merge in InDesign.
    As you would expect, the conventional six fields data merge perfectly - but we can't find a way to make the barcode print correctly within the data merge.
    We have investigated several possible solutions without success.
    Some solutions suggest a plug-in for Excel to convert the number into a barcode whilst still in the spreadsheet - but this doesn't come across correctly when we import the CSV file into the InDesign data merge.
    We have investigated certain third party software applications but none provide the full solution we require. Some, for example, appear to create the barcode within the Excel spreadsheet but don't produce the barcode correctly when we data merge in InDesign; and some will allow us to create a one-off barcode within InDesign but have no automated way of retrieving the thousands of Excel numbers and turning them into barcodes.
    We have also come across possible 'font' solutions but have had no success with these either.
    For a previous job we needed to produce we outsourced to a specialist mailing company, who assured us they produced the whole job (very quickly) within InDesign. They, understandably, won't tell us how they did it. But, given the speed with which they produced the job for us, we imagine - with the correct software - the whole process is easy to do.
    Can you please advise?

    HI MIKE
    Thanks again for your reply and your help with this.
    I've downloaded the barcode font from the link you supplied.
    I've tried three tests - and seem much closer to getting what we need. But I've come up against a couple of issues.
    TEST 1 - almost just to see if the downloaded font worked, I simply data merged our source csv file and applied the downloaded barcode font to the serial number in ID. Probably unsurprisingly, this produced a perfectly printed barcode - that wouldn't scan.
    TEST 2 - I manually added asterisks before and after the serial number in the first couple of fields and then tried the same process as TEST 1. It produced a perfectly printed barcode which this time DID scan correctly - but obviously the barcode had asterisks on it which I don't want. I just want the serial number. And with thousands of serial numbers we need the addition of the asterisks to happen automatically (which is where your text editor process seems the perfect solution, if we could get that to work).
    TEST 3 - Noting your comments about using parenthesis around the serial number, I followed your example of (123456). But Excel won't let me type a parenthesis. It lets me type the parenthesis but then instantly substitutes it with a - (hyphen) before the number in the actual serial number cell and no character at all after the number.
    If you have any suggestions or solutions for any of the above they'd be gratefully received! Thanks again for all your help with this.
    Kind regards

  • I need to sort very large Excel files and perform other operations.  How much faster would this be on a MacPro rather than my MacBook Pro i7, 2.6, 15R?

    I am a scientist and run my own business.  Money is tight.  I have some very large Excel files (~200MB) that I need to sort and perform logic operations on.  I currently use a MacBookPro (i7 core, 2.6GHz, 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3) and I am thinking about buying a multicore MacPro.  Some of the operations take half an hour to perform.  How much faster should I expect these operations to happen on a new MacPro?  Is there a significant speed advantage in the 6 core vs 4 core?  Practically speaking, what are the features I should look at and what is the speed bump I should expect if I go to 32GB or 64GB?  Related to this I am using a 32 bit version of Excel.  Is there a 64 bit spreadsheet that I can us on a Mac that has no limit on column and row size?

    Grant Bennet-Alder,
    It’s funny you mentioned using Activity Monitor.  I use it all the time to watch when a computation cycle is finished so I can avoid a crash.  I keep it up in the corner of my screen while I respond to email or work on a grant.  Typically the %CPU will hang at ~100% (sometimes even saying the application is not responding in red) but will almost always complete the cycle if I let it go for 30 minutes or so.  As long as I leave Excel alone while it is working it will not crash.  I had not thought of using the Activity Monitor as you suggested. Also I did not realize using a 32 bit application limited me to 4GB of memory for each application.  That is clearly a problem for this kind of work.  Is there any work around for this?   It seems like a 64-bit spreadsheet would help.  I would love to use the new 64 bit Numbers but the current version limits the number of rows and columns.  I tried it out on my MacBook Pro but my files don’t fit.
    The hatter,
    This may be the solution for me. I’m OK with assembling the unit you described (I’ve even etched my own boards) but feel very bad about needing to step away from Apple products.  When I started computing this was the sort of thing computers were designed to do.  Is there any native 64-bit spreadsheet that allows unlimited rows/columns, which will run on an Apple?  Excel is only 64-bit on their machines.
    Many thanks to both of you for your quick and on point answers!

  • Create a PDF Form that populates an Excel spreadsheet?

    Hello, I have basic experience with InDesign and would like to do something a bit daunting (don't know if it's even possible).
    I'm coordinating an awards competition where people will fill out a form and I'd like that data to populate an Excel spreadsheet. I also make these forms publicly available so I would need a way to 'lock' the form from being edited.
    I want to layout my form in InDesign and give it a few data fields (e.g. Name, contact information, etc...) and radio buttons (e.g. which awards category would you like to compete in). There are some data fields (e.g. provide background information on your submission) that I do not need populating my Excel spreadsheet.
    The Excel spreadsheet will simply be used for administrative purposes (e.g. keep track of how many people are competing in a specific category).
    Is this possible? Any online tutorials that people can direct me to? Thanks!

    Yoou can design the form in ID, then export to PDF and use Acrobat to convert to a form and "publish." You have several options on how you get the data back from the published form, and one is designed to allow you to populate a spreadsheet, I believe, but that's really an Acrobat topic. How large scale will the distribution be? A standard Acrobat license permits only 500 returns.

  • 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)“.

  • Need to Merge Excel Spreadsheet data with Word Disposition Sheet

    I work for a Medical Devices manufacturer, and in order to keep track of our failures, we enter data into an Excel Spreadsheet and then print out a Disposition form containing similar information, which then gets attached to the Device folder. I would like
    a way to cut down the time, by entering the info only once (Via Word, Excel, Access), and having specific info copied to a new field in the existing Spreadsheet and a new Word Document. What is the best way to do this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    From your description, my understanding is that you want to enter the info with one of the Excel/Word/Access, the similar info will auto fill to the other Office documents. If it is correct, your required need some macro via VBA code. If you have further
    question about coding, I recommend you post the question to MSDN forum:

  • With one click, can one upload an entire folder containing at least 7GB of Excel spreadsheet to ICloud and then be able to view them on an Ipad using Numbers. Also, would this cause one to have to pay for over 5GB of space?

    Want to travel only with my Ipad.  Would like to easily upload, with one click, large 7GB folders of both Excel spreadsheets and Word documents to ICloud and then be able to view, change and create individual spreadsheets and documents using Numbers and Pages on my Ipad through the internet? Also, this would exceed the 5GB offered free, but someone said if I am only syncing and not backing up there would be no charge.  Please explain.

    You can't
    Pages and Numbers can save to iCloud, Word and Excel can not.

  • Problem with embedded excel spreadsheet in Word document.

    I am having trouble with a word document that has an embedded excel spreadsheet in it.  If you double click on the spreadsheet to edit it, the following error message appears:
    "The program used to create this object is Excel.  That program is not installed on your computer.  To edit this object, you must install a program that can open the object."
    I know that Excel is installed on the PC.  The PC is running Windows XP SP3 x86 and Office Professional Plus 2007.  I have tried editing the spreadsheet on a PC running Windows 7
    Pro x64 with the same version of office and it works just fine.  I cannot find any differences in the setting between the two so I do not know why it works one place but not the other.
    Any ideas?

    If you double click on an Excel file in Windows Explorer, does Excel startup?  If not, right click on such a File and used the Open with item to set Excel as the default program for opening such files.
    If you need to do that, it may also overcome the issue with the embedded worksheet.
    Hope this helps.

  • Excel spreadsheet not printing correctly

    Recently bought a Envy 4500 all in one printer that my son installed. Everything works except for one thing on my excel spreadsheets.
    1. Every horizontal line is not printing, so I get larger boxes with two lines of print within.
    Thanks for your help....pjh
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Probably more reading than you want to do (and not sure if you're using Excel 2010), but I found this:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-excel/in-excel-2010-cannot-get-gridlines...
    And maybe the Reader's Digest version of a solution?
    After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, and a small rain forest later this suggestion works:
    On existing Excel 2010 Spreadsheets
    In the Excel 2010 document, Print Preview and Print>Printer Properties>Advanced>Document Options>Print Optimizations: change setting to Disable. Save the file.
    Hopefully to work on new Excel 2010 Spreadsheets
    My computer>printers, or printers and devices>printer preferences, change 'Printer Optimization' from 'Enabled' to 'Disabled', then apply.
    Fingers crossed this will work on new spread sheets.

  • Moving Excel Spreadsheets from Work to Home

    I have had this problem for the past month. The problem is when moving Excel
    spreadsheets from home to work only (1) out of (6) will not open. It says there is not enough memory. The other spreadsheets are larger so I know the allocation is ok. The work computer is an IMac running system 9.2, the home
    computers are a G4 IMac and a G3 IBook. Both of these are running Tiger 10.4.4. These spreadsheets open on both of these Tiger computers.
    I use a 128MB USBDrive for moving files back and forth. One thing I have noticed recently is that when opening at work the Icons say PC. I have a newer version of Excel at home, cannot load that version at work because it is not compatible with system 9.2.
    Help????????

    Hi, klugej -
    I don't use OSX, so can't suggest a method there. However, in OS 9, try highlighting the icon of the drive (click on it once), then select Erase from the Special menu. With luck, that will offer one of the Mac formats (probably Mac OS Standard) as well as MS-DOS.
