hi experts,

i am new in InDesign and want to import an excel sheet, but not every row, just a few, lets say row a, b and f. How can I select these rows? I also want to have them until the end of the lines.

I use InDesign CC on Mac OS X High Sierra

kind regards

    Hi,

    With InDesign you can import entire Excel sheets and not parts of it.

    thank you all for your proposals. I will create another file with the wanted rows and thats the solution for me now.

    Try not a place file. Try as copy in Excel and paste into InDesign.

    Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner

    Or create a new excel file with only the parts you want and import that

    Name the ranges and place them separately.
