[opensuse] Google calc and Linux
Hi, I have created a small calc sheet to use on the move, using Google calc app on Android. Now, I wonder how can I use the said sheet on my Linux machine. I thought that I would see a tool on the browser page, gmail page, but no, I don't. Have I missed the icon, or do you know how to open it in Linux? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

have you provided the calc sheet for examination? google sheets reads libreoffice calc sheets, perhaps the reverse is also possible. at one time I was very happy with gnumeric but earlier with 123 -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Why should I? :-o It is empty, just a new calc seet that google tools creates.
google sheets reads libreoffice calc sheets, perhaps the reverse is also possible.
I'll try.

I need something that works on the phone, it will be the primary tool for this one. Optimal tool on Linux would work with google drive. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

Ah, did not know that. Edit it locally, then upload again, I suppose. Good enough.
Another way is to share it with your own gmail account.
The later is what I tried, but I don't find the app in gmail. I used firefox. Sould I try Chrome perhaps? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

I mean on the computer. Simply go to drive.google.com login with your google creds, find the sheet, double click it and it will open in docs.google.com/spreadsheets/HASH From there File>Download As>PICK YOUR FORMAT Works both in Chrome/Chromium and FF

No, Chrome in Linux does not list a Calc application when I login to gmail. However, If I click on the sheet inside Drive, it opens! And it also works in Firefox. Issue solved. Thanks! :-D -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

you can access google drive on your phone and google sheets from there. why do you need another app? -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Because it is a generic question, not an specific to a particular sheet. Either you have done it before and know the tools, or you don't. If you wish to try, just create a sheet in Google Calc app on your phone.
It is empty, just a new calc seet that google tools creates.
and for someone w/o a google account?
Then you don't know the answer, you can not help me. I can try on my own diverse tools, I was hopping from answers from people that had already done it, to save time. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
