Attaching Excel Spreadsheet

[The_Taffinch]

Hi,

Does anyone know whether it's possible to attach a MS Excel spreadsheet on a post, or do I need to use a link to a public download space such as Dropbox?

Kind regards,
Matt.

Cheers Paul...is this done with the attach image or attach link functions?

Sorry...got it now. The only problem is that the sheet doesn't translate to PDF very well:-(

what version of adobe you using. I use adobe x pro and i just go>file>Print and select PDF rather than my printer in the drop down

I just have adobe reader unfortunately. I found a way to resize the sheet in Excel and export to PDF but vBulletin didn't the filesize. I have used a Dropbox link now.

Cheers for the help

Do you just want to show the data could you just 'print screen' then paste into Paint, save as a JPEG and post it as a photo?

if you want to manipulate data then obviously this is a rubbish idea!

It's a big sheet so I think the resolution wouldn't be there in a jpeg. All sorted now

you can get free pdf converters on the web that put a print as pdf in your print options in word

You could use Google Docs and just share the link
