Does it require more than the macro page to work? If not I can publish http://www.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/SocialCalcMacro on code.xwiki.org right away - although I'm not sure where the underlying JS code is located right now. Not yet. I guess we'd need to write some kind of transformation thing on the backend to allow editing an attached Excel spreadsheet right from the wiki page but that would be pretty cool :-) * * *Can I import an Excel spreadsheet into SocialCalc?** **Right now you can import data from Excel by selecting a range in Excel, copying it to the clipboard, and then doing a "Ctrl-V" paste in SocialCalc. The values are pasted - no formats and no formulas. In the future we plan to have more extensive Excel import, so that you can upload an Excel file and turn it into a SocialCalc page, preserving some of the formatting and (hopefully) formulas (where there is functional overlap). Macros will not be imported. CSV file format import is also planned at some point.** **Can I export from SocialCalc to Excel?** **You can copy a range of data in SocialCalc (e.g., Ctrl-C) and then paste it into Excel. CSV export will be available by July 17. Excel export is on roadmap * So it looks like there's still some work to do for this to work. * * Anyway, that's a good start!
