Officecels - excel help (reps)
Misc, I'm trying to work with a large amount of information from an HTML file, but if I select all, and attempt to paste into excel, everything crashes. I think it works out to ~25000 lines (I need to do this several times).
Can anyone recommend a solution? I might be able to get the info in .txt format, but idk if that would copy into excel as well..
Buy new i9 computer?
Steal quantum computer?
Ldar?
for time

Hey good pic brah
I would try copying and pasting in chunks, but first right click to paste and select Match Destination Formatting to try pruning out any weird formats it may be trying to insert

It's also WELL worth it to learn it. It's called Get & Transform in some versions of Excel for some dumb reason.
