As a regular routine I have to import .xslx spreadsheets into gnumeric for my use.
As has been noted in many random places the .xslx sheets contain over a million rows as a matter of course. This makes the gnumeric sheets which import all the excel rows, slow and painful to access and work with. It seems this is likely a problem with Excel, which retains all of these rows, even though they may be empty. The only solution I've found is to copy the contents of the large gnumeric sheet to a new gnumeric sheet and to save the new sheet for working purposes. This can be painful too, as it requires copying each tab of the large sheet into the new sheet. Many tabs mean lots of copying. Has anyone found an alternative method of ditching these unwanted rows without the tab by tab copying procedure? Is there any work being done by the gnumeric developers to overcome the problem? Thanks. -- Chris Dunn _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
