It's been a long time since I worked in Ventura, but if you
copy/paste the Excel cells into Word, you will have a Word
table. This should be directly movable into Ventura via
copy/paste, or you can RTF it and then import it. If you're
seriously Word-phobic, you can save the Excel spreadsheet
as HTML. Ventura didn't do HTML way back when I used
it, but I would guess that by now it has gained that ability.
I've been given a bunch of Microsoft Excel files to put in a manual.
As you may know, I'm currently using Ventura publisher. Does anyone know
how to import this and get it looking at least something like a table? I
copied the worksheet and pasted it into a blank page. I got all the
text, but no lines, and lots of spacing that I couldn't do much with.
