Viewing an Excel table that was inserted into a Solidworks Drawing.
Viewing an Excel table that was inserted into a Solidworks Drawing.
(OP)
I inserted an excel object from a file into a drawing. I always seem to have a problem showing the columns that I want it to display. I have tried editing the excel table with the worksheet, and resetting the print area. I have right clicked on the table and tried reset size. Has anyone had this problem? I am running SW 2004 with service pack 3.0 this also happened in service pack 2.1. Please Help.
Thanks
Kim

FYI - This isn't a SW issue it's Microsoft issue.

I'm running SP3.0 of SW04 and I'm showing 7 columns in my embedded Excel spreadsheet in my Drawing. So I don't see a problem here and there isn't an option that I'm aware of that would keep this from happening if your columns are small as well as you text.

When you double click the table you are launching Excel with SW. You shouldn't be launching Excel in a separate window. If you are using a DT (Part, assembly) you get the option of editting it in a window or in a separate window.

Ran some tests and I can't duplicate your problem either (SW2004-SP3/Excel 2000).
