Greetings: I keep my banking accounts on Excel spreadsheets and on a regular basis save those sheets to a text file (.txt). I then copy those text files to a flash card and import them in to my Braillenote as a braille file.
A quick global replacement of the tab indicators provides a very readable and up-to-date picture of my finances on my Braillenote. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bill Tipton Sent: Sunday, February 06, 2005 11:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Braillenote List Subject: [Braillenote] RE: [Braille note] Reading Excel spreadsheets Hi, If I could convert the Excel Spreadsheet into an MS Word file with tables, do you think that would work? does the Braille note handle tables? What about converting the Excel file to a braille document? Would that keep the formatting of a spreadsheet? Those are the only ways I can think of to convert the Excel file to something the Braille Note will read. Thanks for your help.
