Work Sheets

[alfresco]

I have created a plant list for a project. I would like to use the worksheet for other purposes, ie. email etc to nurseries or other service providers. Is ist possible to copy, forward export a copy of the worksheet to a file or other users with out forwarding the entire file?

Thanks.

Sure - activate the Worksheet - go File/Export WS - there are several formats you can export to - I generally use TAB and it will be exported as a text file

You can then import it into software like Excel, Word

I am on Windows

If the people you are sending this to are only reading it (not adding to it

or marking it up), then you might also try these two options:

1). Place the worksheet on a Sheet Layer, then Export as PDF.

2). Just do a screenshot of it. And spend the half a minute you just saved enjoying a few sips of coffee.

Note that when you do Export the worksheet for use in Excel, it becomes

a "dummy." That is all of the functions/formulas are gone.

I haven't tried it with a worksheet object, but in Mac OSX, select and copy a VW object, then paste the selection into an email. It shows up as a PDF attachment (or in-line graphic for some recipients). There is probably a Windows version of this, too.

Thank you for your help! When I activate the woksheet and go to file /Export as suggested, I get a message that states "A worksheet is not active". Any suggestions? Thanks you very much for your assistance!
