Import Data from a Microsoft Excel Worksheet


When Plant Simulation reads an MS Excel table, it attempts to convert the values in the individual column to the data types of the columns
in your Plant Simulation table. This only works, when you created the columns on the Excel worksheets so that they only contain a single
data type, meaning that, when you, for example, assign the data type String to a cell of a column, the entire column may only be of data
type String. After importing the data into Plant Simulation, you have to check the data types of the individual columns, you might have to
correct the type of some, and you will have to filter out data you do not need. You can either do this manually in the open Plant Simulation
table, or you can program a Method to manipulate the data while importing it.
If the Excel file has a column label, which you want to also use in your Plant Simulation list, activate and show the column index in the Plant
Simulation list.

• For our example we used the file MyTestData.xls, which looks like this in Excel.

• The imported Excel worksheet looks like this in our Plant Simulation table.

Check the file for correct data types, data you do not need, etc. You can also pre-process or post-process the data by programming a
Method.
• To export the contents of an Plant Simulation list or table as an Excel file, click Export Excel File on the List ribbon tab.
