Pasting the data as RTF caused one of the columns to shrink until no data
could be read.

Pasting as HTML gave me a nicely expanded table which filled the entire
page. Nearly no formatting required.

Thank you for the prompt response!

Hi Rewarp,

I need to transfer spreadsheet data into a table, so that I may use the
Table caption in Writer. Consistency is very important as this is a thesis,
so table data can't be captioned as Figure.

The current way method I am employing is to:

1. select all data cells I wish to copy;
2. Paste Special in Writer;
3. Select all data that has been pasted, and click the Table icon;
4. Select table, in Styles and Formatting, select Table Contents to apply
style;
5. Caption.

Does anyone have a better suggestion?



If you use RTF or HTML-format when inserting, you get directly a table. 
In RTF some of the formattings of the Calc table are retained.


If you insert a picture–which might be necessary for 90°rotation of 
large tables–then you can choose category "table" in the caption dialog 
to get it count as table.


Kind regards
Regina

[libreoffice-users] Is There a Better Way to Paste Spreadsheet in Writer Table?

2011-04-18 Thread Rewarp
I need to transfer spreadsheet data into a table, so that I may use the
Table caption in Writer. Consistency is very important as this is a thesis,
so table data can't be captioned as Figure.

The current way method I am employing is to:

   1. select all data cells I wish to copy;
   2. Paste Special in Writer;
   3. Select all data that has been pasted, and click the Table icon;
   4. Select table, in Styles and Formatting, select Table Contents to apply
   style;
   5. Caption.

Does anyone have a better suggestion?
