I have a problem that same as #3. Then, I trying fork-and-fixing. But I could not build it with the error in the below:

Other things being equal, it works fine local, but it doesn't work on remote-ssh. It doesn't seem to be getting data from Clipboard

local:

I cannot copy Excel table into Markdown file using Visual Studio Extension. I get an popup error message that states "Invalid Array Length".

I document data models in Excel and export some of them into WIKI entries, the content in Excel contains comments like

/*this is a comment
bla*bli*blum
*/

the plugin doesn't care about "*" and markdown will interpret parts of the content to italic:
/this is a comment
bla bli blum
/

"*" should be escaped when converted in markdown

Try this more complex example to check:

/*AT:
Sum(IIf([35]="nein",[18]-1,[21]-1)*[9]*[28]*[29]/100) AS Beitrag_BM, 
*/
(IIF(istMitBenchmark = 1, T1.TWR_BM_BW, [T1].[TWR_PF_BW]) - 1)
* T1.VOL_PF_BW

so , we can copy table to the excel!

Hi, just after I upgraded to 1.30 I got this message:

command 'extension.excelToMarkdown' not found

I've tried uninstalling, reloading and installing again but unsuccessfully.

Tried this on my Mac and thought I was going insane: selecting paste from the context menu only insert normal text. Then I tried the keyboard combination shift+option+vand it works !

Dear csholmq,

I installed this vscode extension, and as instructed, I also installed via npm the copy-past package. However, I found this not working (by menu bar - view- command palette - Excel to Markdown table). I guess this might be due to the npm package's location. Should I install the copy-paste package globally, or to some certain dirs? Or should I put --save variable?

Currently, copying an Excel table with empty cells results in just the text being pasted into VS Code.

Steps to reproduce.

1. Create an Excel table, but leave some cells throughout it empty
2. Copy the table
3. Use the Excel to Markdown pasting option in VS Code (or just Shift + Alt + V)
4. See that there is no table markdown characters, just the contents of the cells.

When copying Asian characters(such as Chinese), the extension would not recognize them and paste them as "?"

I run the ts code in command line, and the scripts do recognize Asian chars. Could not figure why this happen.

I installed the converter to VS Code. However, when restarted the editor and pressing SHIFT+ALT+v I only see an open menu box and no way to convert the previously copied Excel sheet.

Please provide a clear, step by step description on how this works.

I am reusing the code to copy excel data in Obsidian editor. One issue is that when running the code is iOS, the regex throws an error as lookbehind regex is not supported in Safari based devices.

Use of lookbehind regex in excel-markdown-helpers.ts

Question: Is it possible to rewrite this regex without lookbehind regex? I am looking for your help as I didn't want to touch the regex without much context and introduce some regression by fixing this.

with VS-Code and the add-in "excel-to-markdown-table" works only with Excel 2013.

The new Excel version 2016 does not work.

Will there be another update?

thanks
Frank
