    Linked Excel Spreadsheets

    Is anyone aware of a trick for doing an Edit/Paste Special/ Linked Excel spreadsheet that gets around the known 105 character width limitation? We are needing to be able to paste/link in excel spreadsheets without having to do so in pieces. Does anyone have a secret?
    THANK YOU for your time!

    I am not aware of any workarounds within CAD for bringing in large
    spreadsheets.
    Search for 3rd Party programs which allow you to bring in the full
    spreadsheet.
    Searching through previous posts is a good place to start.
