exporting to excel 2003
i'm trying to export data from a third party program which is microsoft
access based - when i export to excel 2003 i lose some of the information in the cells, usually cells which have a few sentences in them. it seems as though the cell is limiting the number of characters in the cell, but when i open a new workbook i dont have a problem. its just the export from the access based program to excel 2003. this issue doesnt happen on computers in the office which have excel 2002. i am running windows XP 2002 with SP2. |

exporting to excel 2003
How are you 'exporting'? To a text file that you then pull into Excel? To
an Excel file? Have you tried using Excel's menu option for Data-Import External Data?

exporting to excel 2003
Duke, there is actually a small button in the third party program that
exports to excel, which creates an xls file. its only an issue on my computer, others in the office who have excel 2003 dont have this issue, its just my PC. I have installed all the updates, reset my computer and still not working properly! thanks! "Duke Carey" wrote: How are you 'exporting'? To a text file that you then pull into Excel?
