Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): Origin 8.50G SR1
Operating System:Win7

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to copy data from an excel file into my origin project. I have 225000 values in a column in excel and would like to copy this whole column into origin. It copies the first 65536 values but that's it. So I thought maybe origin can't handle more than 65536 values in the "cache" so I tried to copy the next 65536 values, but it won't work. It won't let me copy my data into the origin file. Anyone knows why? And how can I solve that problem?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi Iphark,

This problem has actually been fixed in Version 9.0 or higher. You should consider upgrading, to learn your options contact your local distributor:

Additionally what version of Excel are you currently using?

Thanks

Hey! Thanks for your answer zahraa!

Unfortunately I'm currently working in a rather small institution and I seem to be the first one to encounter this problem. So I guess the need for this specific feature is not enough to justify the costs for the upgrade.

My Excel version is 2010.

greetings

Hi Iphark,

There is one work around you can use:

1.) Go to Windows : Script
2.) Type: @XLP=0;
3.) Highlight it and press Enter

This should allow you to copy paste as many values as you need. However the downside to this workaround is that it does only text pasting, and so it will have the precision of the digits as currently shown in the source Excel sheet, so any real precision beyond that will be lost.

Thanks

Hi, Gracy

Do you want to paste the 1000*1000 values to Origin worksheet or matrix?

If worksheet, could you let me know which version you are working with so that I can see whether the solution Zahra provides above works for your version.

If matrix, please set proper dimension of the matrix first. Then all the values should be able to be copied/pasted to the Origin matrix.
