We use tabloid size sheets (11"x17") for our engineering drawings. When trying to copy and paste an Excel 2002 (Office XP) spreadsheet into AutoCAD 2002 as an OLE object (Edit > Paste Special > Excel Worksheet) it clips the worksheet. It only imports the columns that would fit on an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet. We wind up having to copy and paste twice and moving them together. Is anyone else experiencing this? Has anyone found a workaround?

AutoCAD 2002 Clips Excel Spreadsheets

we´ve experienced the same problem, the only solution we found was to reduce the dimension of columns, rows and text size, in order to fit in the display.
We found other problems when plotting ole objects. Worksheets only become readable in best quality mode (hp1050c).
