Linked excel tables in InDesign CS5 update problems and keep the formatting: need help

I've been using excel to place several tables in my InDesign CS5 document which will require the update on a regular basis. The tables are already formatted in excel, so I will place in InDesign with formatting and you will usually have to reduce proportionally the tables as soon as they are in InDesign CS5. When I'll update the links, it is important the content of the tables as part of current text with larger text and I am unable to "Insert the picture content" or "shrink content proportionally." Nobody knows how to solve this problem or know of another way to link excel with formatting tables and update without having to reformat the table (i.e. to resize the image and text) every time that happens an update? Thank you!!

Can't do it, sorry. Tables only.

  • Reinstall XP (box set) w / updated version and keep the settings?

    My old installation of XP Professional (ver 2000 / SP1 retail box) is not working properly.  Hundreds of antivirus, fixes Registry scans, updates and several hard drive card mother upgrade and later I lost some basic features *.  Can I reinstall XP using a downloaded newer version (SP3) using my old key (commercial box version) and keep all my settings?  I remember that I did this a few years ago and had to rebuild all the updates, but I got what I needed.  Now when I try, the same original disk says that I must start over costs and versions are not compatible.  Also, where is the best place to get the installation files?

    A most annoying things is the delay huge opening files.  Some never open and I get a message unable to find the file, that I just clicked?  I reinstalled all affected programs (like Office 2003 / Excel) and there is no improvement.

    Interesting responses.  I was not on top of the issue of IE, but it makes sense.  It has been a few years, but I remember that the successful repair XP restored my IE and I've had to update again, but he did not screw up the repair.  I think that IEv7 was in use at the time.  I am currently on IEv8.

    My restore points do not rise close enough to fix all of this and the last one I tried (up to a point a week or so prior) failed.  3rd party patches registry improve some things, but not all.

    I have the original disc of the 2002 version of the retail box.  No download version.  I was hoping to find one online as I did for S7 in my newsroom.  For this installation, I bought a key provider of Microsoft and it worked fine.

    Maybe I'll start a couple of new threads for specific problems.

  • Indesign CS5 update

    Hi guys,.

    I have a problem with my Indesign CS5 update (to open recent files after reinstalling), it keeps giving me an error of update in the application manager.

    Now I found a solution posted by someone that I could update the application manager by going here, but during the process of installation/update it tells me that even this fails!

    He then directs me to Adobe Support Advisor, which is abandoned.

    This quite frustrating to say the least, I need to have the latest version in order to use my files before reinstalling my system, I created.

    Is it possible that I could download perhaps manually CS5 updates?

    Or another way of doing things to day?

    Any help appreciated

  • 910219. how to download and keep the Windows Update files?

    Hello

    What is the ideal way to update Windows? now, Windows downloads the selected updates. where? I do not know! and after their installation, it removes the packages for installation on my computer. This causes the downloaded updates are lost, and I can't use them to similar machines that need to install the same updates. for these machines, I have to download updates again! This causes my internet to be charged again while it is not really necessary.

    the ideal way, in my view, is that I can specify a folder for the Windows Update service. It can use a default folder for that also. After selecting the updates, I want to install in my system, it checks to see if the update is already existing in the folder. only if NOT it downloads. then after downloading it maintains the package in the same folder after installing. installation should be done automatically as it is done now. Then I can move the folder to another machine. in the second machine, I also choose the update I want to be installed which are mostly the same as the first machine. for example, Windows Update only consumes my internet traffic for updates that are not yet downloaded. I wonder why Windows Update doesn't currently work the same way?

    by this method, I can at least use the consumption of traffic and I can access the latest updates with the easier and faster way. I I would like to choose a memory flash for this purpose and keep the folder inside.

    is there a way to achieve this?

  • How to keep the format setting when generating a table of contents

    Hello

    I have a superscript® in a title in a document that should be put in the Table of contents. When I generate the table of contents, I can't keep the format in the table of contents.

    I could cheat and manually change the, but there must be a way that remains with these properties whenever I have to regenerate the table of contents.

    No idea how?

    Kind regards.

    What version of FM?

    What the police?

    There are two separate issues here:

    1. If you are super as a character Format in the files of body, the format must be in character for the OCD catalogue, or the formatting is not applied.
    2. If you do this and get it display correctly in the table of contents, which will break the hyperlink linking it.

    The solution is usually to do great as characters of Unicode natively by exposing and not the character Formats.

    Hello, welcome to the forum of InDesign. I'm a different Steve.

    What version of InDesign are you using? What operating system do you use?

    Tell us exactly how you create your text box (frame).

    The easiest way is to choose the tool of Type (T). Click and drag an image where you want to go.

    But, if you place the text to another program like Microsoft Word, click file > Place. Select the file and click Open. Drag-and-drop placement of text cursor to position it on the page.

    If you use a perpetual Photoshop and formatted your disc version of starting without disabling your activation of Photoshop, you also Adobe supports help you activate Photoshop once you retrieve your serial number.  The startup disk formatting would destroy that credential of Activation Photoshop machine which is registered in the database of the Adobe activation server. Which reduces the activation numbers you have to use.  If you have Photoshop installed on a second computer that means that you have no free activation available as well, even with your key you can't activated the machine.

  • Exporting data to Excel discoverer - keep the format for numbers options

    Is it possible to keep the format options when you export an excel spreadsheet.

    I formatted numbers with 2 decimal places and using the 1000 separator, but in great numbers do not have the 1000 separator. For some reason any.

    Thank you

    When we export out of our 10.1.2.3 Discoverer Plus the instance as a Microsoft Excel (.xls) workbook and open results with Excel 2007, we can see the format exactly as it is in the Scout report.

    When the user first opens the workbook, they see two worksheets - we the unformatted data, and contains macros formatting. At the top left, there is a warning from security - Macros have been disabled, with the Options button. By clicking on the Options button gives a choice to 'enable this content '. Once the user clicks the OK button, the Excel export will be formatted as the discoverer of report.

  • Jdev 11G ADF BC: rollback and keep the current line problem

    Hello

    I have 2 pages of tabs in the application. The second is a page change that has a master detail data set can be changed and 2 buttons - submit and rollback.

    Submit button is a validated method from the viewImpl.java that will save your changes and keep the currently selected line.
    Cancel button is also validated method of the viewImp and the restoration on the changes and keep the line currently selected.

    There is a validator that is set up for a component on this page. When user input is not valid and that the user clicks on the "Restore" button, the error message appears and stays there until a valid value is entered.

    How can I restore without validating any component. In a Word, how to disable the validator when you click on restore.

    Thank you very much

    Annie

    I would suggest trying to use Steve code as is in the view object in beforeRollback, afterRollback.
    It works very well with the button restore default
    Maybe the problem is that you made the restoration of the Interior of the view object.

  • How can I change the options to import to an Excel spreadsheet in InDesign CS5.5?

    Hello

    I have a problem with a script InDesign that works this way in ID CS4 and CS5 ID, but stops working in ID CS5.5.

    What the script must do, is to change the preferences to import to a table saved in an Excel file so that I can place a table not formatted in a new textFrame in my InDesign document. The Excel document is a .xlsx file.

    function setExcelImportPrefs() {
        with (app.excelImportPreferences) {
             app.excelImportPreferences.tableFormatting = TableFormattingOptions.excelUnformattedTable;
            }
    }
    

    What the script (or at least seems to do) is: nothing. The table that is placed in the textFrame by the script is always formatted, as seems to be the standard InDesign CS5.5 preference to import tables from excel files.

    Does anyone have a hint for me how to make the script work in ID CS5.5?

    As it works on my machine (!), a reason may be that just the spelling should be: TableFormattingOptions.EXCEL_UNFORMATTED_TABLE

  • Import excel tables in InDesign and retain formulas

    Hello world

    I need to update the style and format of a bunch of old forms that were made in Excel, to match our new style guide. The problem is that many forms understand formulas... What can I do to make these in InDesign? And they will always be there if I create a PDF to fill out on-line that users can fill it with Adobe Reader?

    Thank you very much in advance for your help,.

    Christine

    InDesign cannot read and/or analyse Excel formulas. Excel puts the formula in a cell and adds last result, and which is read by InDesign to plain text. It is rather the opposite: to get a 'formula' in ID, you will need to fit in plain text in Excel (once again, see you in ID in plain text).

    Nothing to fear: Excel is very bad in the formatting of the text; ID, on the other hand, excels in the present.

    Table styles have absolutely nothing to do with it. They are for tables formatting , not for the calculations. Moreover, these Table Styles are integrated into IDS since the CS2 version - last is CS4.
