  1. Why does my excel spreadsheet lose all structure when I paste it into notepad on windows 10


    I am trying to create a batch file using excel and notepad. I am using excel to be able to quickly change file names so that I can rename all files and folders in bulk. However when I copy and paste it into notepad it looses its structure on files with long names and does not work when I run thale batch file. The batch file will run but has no effect on the files that I am trying to rename

    :)

    Yes, there is but the method depends heavily on the structure of your spreadsheet and the way the file names are listed in there.

    Working with Excel spreadsheets in OneNote Windows 10

    Windows 8 and OneNote 2016 have some good features when working with Excel Spreadsheets. e.g. In OneNote 2016 there is a Microsoft Excel button that allows new or existing Excel spreadsheets to be opened and edited. Once opened there is an edit button in
    upper left corner of the spreadsheet. When clicked. Excel opens and one can add data and edit the spreadsheet. Then when you quit Excel the new changes to the spreadsheet appear in the OneNote version of the spreadsheet. Very neat!

    I don't find any way to edit spreadsheets in OneNote for Windows 10. In fact I find no good way to work well with Excel and OneNote. I find I can open a Excel spread sheet in OneNote.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Please help

    PRINTING LABEL IN WORD FROM AN EXCEL SPREADSHEET

    We are trying to print labels in word from a spreadsheet in Excel. We have tried copying the spreadsheet to a recipient list but can not get it to work. Is there a way to import the spreadsheet and not retype the information?
