upload question

[DPeterson]

While the forum will allow uploading of pictures and Word documents, it doesn't allow the uploading of Excel documents. It didn't even allow an Excel upload with an e-mail address through the PM system.

Confused?

Good question. Why are they not allowed?

[crabstick]

probably for security reasons as excel sheets can contain malicious macros etc...

[Steven Vaccaro]

Because scripts can be run in excel. Scrips easily contain viruses or Trojans.

[DPeterson]

OK - Thanks

Good to know it wasn't my profesional computer skills. :)

excel spreadsheet on OSE Forum

You can copy and paste an excel spreadsheet into a Word document and attach or email it.

Or just zip it, easier to do... and to scan for viruses before unzipping.

[ReddyWatts]

Well there ya go, two ways around it.

Just remember the max file size limit is 1 meg for a doc and 100k for a zip.

Printing the excel file to PDF is easy.

My buddy Sean converted it to a pdf for me. It worked.

Thanks for all the other ideas. However for me it is like trying speak a language I do not know. :)

Same with me ... isn't FE Calc an Excell program?

When it comes to PC's I can build an awesome comp but when it comes to software I am at a loss.

I wish someone knew how to edit FeCalc for calculating 2, 4 and 6 pole motors.
