SpreadsheetConverter

Import Spreadsheets from Microsoft Excel is a WordPress plugin that allows you to import live, calculating spreadsheets from Microsoft Excel to your blog or website in WordPress. The plugin is free but the calculating web page must have been generated with a paid license for <a href="http://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/" title="Link to the SpreadsheetConverter web site" rel="nofollow ugc">SpreadsheetConverter</a>, an add-in for Excel that converts the Excel spreadsheet to HTML and the formulas in Excel to JavaScript. The uploaded online spreadsheet is live and looks and feels exactly like in Excel. Now you can use Excel everywhere!
SpreadsheetConverter works like an Excel compiler creating live online spreadsheets in HTML and JavaScript. It is not a simple Excel viewer; the web spreadsheet plugin runs all your formulas in real-time – all the cells and charts are live!
You usually need to have your own WordPress server to install plugins. It may not be possible to install plugins on WordPress.com or other shared WordPress servers. If you are unable to use this plugin, you can use our <a href="https://help.spreadsheetconverter.com/support/online-help/publish-to-cloud" title="Link to the Publish to Cloud help page" rel="nofollow ugc">Publish to Cloud</a> service instead. It is built into SpreadsheetConverter and uploads the calculator to a cloud server. In most cases, this works just as well.
Note: before you upload a spreadsheet, you must use <a href="http://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/" title="Link to the SpreadsheetConverter web site" rel="nofollow ugc">the SpreadsheetConverter add-in for Microsoft Excel</a> to convert your spreadsheet to web format. To use this add-in, you must have Microsoft Excel 2007 or later for Windows – and the basic skills to create spreadsheets with it. Prices for unlimited, lifetime licenses for the current version start at $254. There are no extra fees per server, month, page or visitor.
We’d love to help you try SpreadsheetConverter on one of your own spreadsheets. You don’t have to install the software to test it. Just send one of your own spreadsheets, and we’ll send it back as a live, intelligent web form or calculator. Use <a href="https://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/news/free-demo/" title="Link to the free-trial information page for for SpreadsheetConverter" rel="nofollow ugc">the online form</a> and remember to attach the spreadsheet!
This service is free, because it’s so simple to convert your spreadsheet to web format with SpreadsheetConverter that we can do it in almost no time at all. If you want to keep your web calculator or form up-to-date without ever installing or learning the converter, you can have us do all the conversion work for you, forever, using <a href="https://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/products/one-calculating-web-form-from-an-excel-sheet/" title="Link to the product page for paid one-time conversions" rel="nofollow ugc">the paid conversion service</a>.
