UG Spreadsheet (EXCELL)Tabular notes
(OP)
Does anyone know how to get the formatting of
the spreadsheet to stat intact when using Tabular
notes?. If I create a tabular note in excell and
place it on the drawing... When I go back to edit
it, All formatting is lost. Very frustrating, seems
like it would be a good tool if it worked.

I'm currently using Tabular Notes and agree that there are many areas for improvement. I have a few workarounds that I'll list in case you want to try them.
For the table size issue there is an auto-size Cells option that is on the options menu in the linked spreadsheet. If you uncheck that it will help with table size on Drawing but excel row heights change unexpectedly. With options you can also change text format and size and chose whether or not to show grid lines. I've used this method with associative trimmed curves that will update if table size changes.
The other method is a bit more parametric and that is to make a sketch in the Drawing using the sketcher and add dimensions and equal length constraints to control size.

You can try to change the row height in Excel, as described, but I don;t think any of the special formatting commands, row height, column width, cell merge, come trough when you apply the changes and reteun to UG.
