Subject:Re: Need help importing Excel spreadsheet From:Bill Swallow <techcommdood -at- gmail -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 18 May 2005 15:59:05 -0400
My guess is that you have a text frame in the anchored frame that
you're importing into? Is this import by reference or copy into
document? Have you tried resizing the text frame and/or anchored
frame? What version of FM are you using? What version of Excel?
I just imported a 300 row, 9 column XLS into FM with no problems.
