AFAIK, no Excel format is a supported format (but PSPP is open-source, so feel free to write that missing functionality and contribute it to our community).
I suggest that you save the excel file as a Tab-delimited, CSV or ODS file and try importing that. ODS would be the closest to the Excel formats. Maybe you also found a bug: I just tried saving a small Excel file using Office 2010 as "OpenDocument Spreadsheet format" and importing into GNU pspp 0.10.4-g50f7b7 and I do see that there is a mostly blank screen at the end of the import wizard. But I clicked "apply" and it imported OK. If you think you might be seeing a bug (e.g., if by "import Excel data" you do mean something like tab-delimited or CSV) then please be more specific about the steps required to replicate the bug. Also include a short dataset (or information that is OK to make public) that triggers the bug, ideally as a plan ASCII (tab-delimited or CSV). -Alan On 10/22/2017 11:13 AM, Joseph Greenberg wrote: > > I’m using GNU pspp 1.0.1-g818227 on Windows 10 64-bit. > > > > When I try to import Excel data, the import screens do not preview the > data so I can’t select which lines to import, which is the first line, > which are the separators, etc. The large panel is entirely blank.
