Hello:
I would lie to convert a simple ascii or utf8 encoded textfile to a table. The text has no delimiters between columns, but each column in the text file has its specific character lenght. For example in each row of the text characters 1-10 should go into column 1, characters 12-19 into column 2 etc. Is this possible, how?
Thanks for the super fast answer!
Libre Office / Open Office will do that.
Import text into calc, and select no delimiter, but column width. Then click and resize each column in the preview, and change the type of each one if appropriate (number, date, string, or generic) if appropriate.
I tried LO before but could not discover this feature own my own. For accuracy in my LO version "no delimiter" is "fixed with". Then colums can be selected in the window below as you described.
Then, if your destination file is not LO calc, export to another format. For instance, selecting the table with the mouse and pasting into Thunderbird converts to an html table on the fly.
I wanted to import it originally into LO so I don't have to export. Thanks a lot! Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
