Post From: Spreadsheet File Conversion Failed

I renamed the sheets to match the charts. Upon closing and relaunching the installation, every sheet was duplicated by a numbered sheet with the same data. The same thing happened with the installation I managed to convert in situ, mentioned in my first post above. I do not know if this is standard, but the renamed sheets do not seem to update after they are duplicated.


4) On relaunch, there were 3 additional sheets numbered 1,3,and 4. These updated with realtime data. My named sheets did not update.

You cannot rename the Sheets. This is not supported. Otherwise, you will see the behavior that you do. We do expect to support sheet renaming when using the Spreadsheet Study later on.

Also, one of the sheets had the studies scrambled, ie the first study was not in column AA
This is not clear for us. The term scrambled does not make sense to us in this context. Refer to these study Inputs:

http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SpreadsheetStudyInputs.html#BlankColumnsBeforeFirstStudy

You could attach all the files you want converted as a zip file and privately attach them and we can do the conversion. But we cannot guarantee, that the formulas are all going to transfer exactly properly if some of the aspects of them are unsupported.
