Die Erklärung der einzelnen Schritte im Detail

This is how you can assign ranges to a table in Excel:

  • So that you can insert a table in Word, the table requires an assigned name or print area. To do this, select the entire range of the table in your Excel document.

  • In the “*Layout” menu ribbon, in the “Areas” group, you can automatically define the print area you require for the previously defined selection by using the “Print area” function.

  • Assign a line type:

  • So that you can assign a line type, you have to select the corresponding line or a cell from this line.

  • In the “*Layout” menu ribbon, in the “Formatting” group you can use the “Line types” function to assign the various line types – such as “Single table header” for the table header.

  • Assign column highlighting:

  • To use one of the predefined column highlighting options predefined by firesys, select the column you want to highlight.

  • In the “*Layout” menu ribbon, in the “Formatting” group, click on the “Highlight” menu and select a highlight from the drop-down menu.

Good to know

It is sufficient to select a cell in a column and assign one of the predefined styles to it - firesys automatically assigns the selected style to the complete table row.

RxmnuCellBackground 16.png Highlighting

Highlight entire columns or individual cells in Excel with a defined background colour or remove the highlighting. In Excel, a pattern is set across the selected cells so the background and font colours are easily recognizable. Depending on the layout, various highlights are available (e.g.: previous year, current year, ...).

RxbtnCellBackground 01.png Highlight

Colours cells in Excel yellow or removes this highlighting so that this can be transferred to Word. This way, numbers or texts in tables, that have not been defined yet, can be highlighted sustain-ably.

RxbtnCellBackground 02.png Hide numbers

Colours selected cells red or removes this highlighting so that the cells can be replaced with Xs in Word. This function is useful if you want to transfer your confidential data to external parties, e.g. your translator.

RxbtnCellBackground 03.png Ignore number format

Highlights the selected cells in green or removes the highlight. The contents of the cells highlight-ed in green (e.g. the term “Chapter 2.1”) are ignored when the number format of language-numbers is used.

RxbtnCellBackground 04.png Import brackets

In the past, numbers in brackets were shown as negative numbers in Word. When you apply the “import brackets” function to Excel cells, numbers in brackets (e.g. information from the notes) are transferred to Word when updating. When the number format of languagenumbers is used, they are not recognized as negative numbers and therefore remain in the table as numbers in brackets. This is particularly useful if you want to display information from the notes with brack-ets in your tables.

RxbtnCellBackground 05.png Strikethrough

Highlights the selected cells in light blue or removes this highlight again. With cells that are high-lighted in light blue, two diagonal lines are set when they are imported into Word. This can be used in reports, for example, which are created in accordance with the Solvency II Standard.

Find trends and patterns in your data easily with the aid of bars. Colours and symbols visually highlight important values. The conditional formatting can be transferred to Word.

The transfer of the background and font colours of an Excel cell is available to you in all firesys documents. The relevant option must be activated in Word for the transfer. In the firesys layout, you can also integrate icon sets in tables.
