Insert Excel spreadsheet only half shows up

[dcochrane757156]

I am trying to insert an excel spreadsheet into a drawing. The spreadsheet is approximately 70 rows. When the spreadsheet shows up in the drawing approximately the last 15 rows don't show-up. Spreadsheet is inserted as an OLE object. I'm running AutoCAD 2005 & Windows XP. Any ideas would be appreciated

Thanks DC

Early versions of excel don't work well. We use ver. 2002, Sp3. Or you could purchase an 3rd party program to make it work. Dotsoft sells one.

My version of Excel never gave me problems like this before. I don't know, maybe it's because of the size of the spreadsheet, normally they are have the size of this one

The limitation is Windows. To verify, copy your spreadsheet data to the clipboard, and then go to Start, Run, CLIPBRD to view what is actually on the clipboard.

We use XL2CAD daily [ http://www.dotsoft.com/xl2cad.htm ] to import XLS into AutoCAD. Works great.
