Paste special table cut off

[bwang-tecoustics]

When I try to insert a table from excel using paste special. It spears that if the table is wider than a certain length, it will be cut off automatically. Why is this happen? Or there is a fix for this?

Can I install it on Windows 7? Also, can you paste a link to that update? Or, it's an update from Microsoft?

OK, I just checked my AutoCAD. When I use paste special, it shows paste as Windows Excel Worksheet. So, that means you can do something to fix this problem for Windows 7 users. Please do.

Hi All,

Yes, the root cause is Paste as Ts. The problem should be resolved with the Windows 10 Creators Update (1709).

@Xun.Zhang Thats interesting.. Has that been an issue for "years" with Microsoft.. I remember "Ts" being like that for a long time now in Inventor (far longer than Windows 10 has been out).. 

I just contacted IT to have them push that update to me but I know for sure that I've had this same problem for as long as I've been using Inventor (back to R8 I think) as I've always had this same problem and have posted about it in this forum for a long time..

If so I'm happy that its "finally" fixed..

For clarification, the screenshot I pasted was in AutoCAD 2016. In 2018 it does show as Ts. Does this mean AutoCAD 2016 is better than 2018? 🙂

The Win10 creators update seems to "fixed" the issues so far..

I can now paste excel tables that I have never been able to before into Inventor without them getting truncated..

@mcgyvr,

Thank you for confirmation!

Would it be possible you do a patch for windows 7 users, or we have to upgrade to windows 10?
