Re: get text from LibreOffice Calc to Emacs Org-Mode

Hi,

yes, wonderful, you understood me.

Sorry, for not explaining it more correctly.

Because I have much text in each cell,
colums a and column b,
each with much text,
and underneath the same,
and so on...

I can’t create such a nice diagramm like this in emacs yet,
so I couldn’ explain it graphically.

Hi,

thanks for your help.

I tried this already, and it works, but the text is almost a mass.
it is difficult to put it in order in emacs.
I would always check both, libreoffice calc and emacs side by side to put the text in order in emacs org-mode.

That’s why I was asking that may be there is a better method  where the text in emacs org-mode  is more ordered.

If there is no alternative, I have to do it like that.

Kind regards

Hi!

As I understand your problem - you are pasting the table contents from Calc, and getting something like this:

```
column1 column2 column2
alpha 1 one
beta 2 two
gamma 3 three
```

while you want to get this text formatted as an org table, something like this:

```
|---------+---------+---------|
| column1 | column2 | column3 |
| alpha   |       1 | one     |
| beta    |       2 | two     |
| gamma   |       3 | three   |
|---------+---------+---------|
```

Is my understanding correct?
