Script for import data from excel to indesign

Hello, my name is Gerald.

I am wanting a script to import the data from the attached excel file to the appropiate fields in the tables in this linked indesign file https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/29if3k7zms1iichj7061y/2024-Wholesale-Catalog-sample.indd?rlkey=bgrm2l....

Use builtin DataMerge or you can place and link the Excel file by adjusting your File Import preferences.

Hi Gerald,

Here I wrote a script for you. I posted it on my site since it’s quite long so it would be easier for me to make edits if the need arises.

From your document’s history, I assume (but don’t know for sure) that you’re on Windows.

Hope it helps!
