Reply To: Placing Formatted Table from Excel to CS4 Losing Formatting

It's the default question that pops up after clicking 'ok' in the import options box. “You can speed up the import process by importing the cells as an unformatted table rather than as a formatted table. Do you want to speed up the import process in this way?”

My boss has since returned from her travels and explained that the formatting had come across okay. The reason it looks like it didn't is because there is a variety of markers in the table (different sized and coloured dots) that InDesign won't bring across to look the same, so I was doing the right thing. It just looked like I'd made a mess of it.

Thank you for your help. Now I must go and buy a wig, because I've pulled all of my hair out!
