No csv format in Paste Special
For some reason I don't have the option to choose a csv format when using Paste Special to copy data into excel. I'm using Excel 2000 ver 9.0.3821 Sr-1. I know that csv it is available because my coworkers have it. Does anyone know how to add the csv option? -- dborski ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dborski's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25918 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=392913 |

There is no CSV option in the Paste Special dialog for Excel. However,
sometimes a paste will wind up parsing text for the reason explained in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;127132 -- Jim "dborski" wrote in message ... | | For some reason I don't have the option to choose a csv format when | using Paste Special to copy data into excel.

Thank you for your reply. You are correct in that there is no csv option on the initial "paste special" screen, but there is another "paste special" screen that comes up when there is a certain type of data in the clipboard. This screen has options as to what format you want to paste the data to. The options I have now are "bitmap", "Unicode text", and "text". I need to find out how to add csv to that list. -- dborski ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dborski's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25918 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=392913 |

Unicode Text should give you the results you desire I believe... -- PokerZan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PokerZan's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=23480 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=392913 |

Thanks for your answer about unicode text but I've tried that and it doesn't separate the columns. All the data is in one cell. -- dborski ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dborski's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25918 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=392913 |
