I have copied and pasted many excel files (tables) over the years.

I am a CC subscriber, so have the latest version of Dreamweaver.

I have an excel file (table) that is about 3500 lines long and 6 fields wide that I need to copy/paste to my web site.  Getting the file too large error and can't locate a parameter file to edit.

Any help appreciated.

Thank You,

Not sure which view you are using, but could you try Design view?

I am in design view.  The error states the file (copy and paste) is too large and suggests pasting in segments which does not meet my needs.  Older versions in the help forums referred to a base file within the program that can be edited to increase the size of paste files the program will allow.  Any help welcome.

Many moons ago, I had several (w)applications that required uploading a CSV file and showing the result as a web page For this I used the SpryCSVDataSet . As far as I know, the dataset can still be used as an effective way of transferring Excel spreadsheet data to the web.

Today I would export the Excel data into a MySQL database.
