The Technique of Table conversion tool in WPS text two

In the new version of WPS text for users to provide a "table conversion tool", allowing users to convert between tables and text, this article will be a simple introduction to the common conversion techniques:

1, the preservation of the Web page information, 2, the User information supplement or append.

Web Data Preservation

Many times, users want to keep information on the Internet for future reference. However, because the Web page is usually designed or formatted according to the frame structure, the content of the copy paste often contains many nested tables, such as the result of copying content from the Web page to the WPS text as shown in Figure 1:

At this point, the user can convert it using the Table Transform Text tool.

The specific steps are as follows:

Step 1 Press the key combination to select the document;

Step 2 Select the "table | convert | table to text" menu item, set the separator in the pop-up dialog box to paragraph mark, and check the "Convert Nested table" checkbox, as shown in Figure 2.

Note: Check the "Convert Nested table" checkbox, which is critical, indicating that all nested tables in the table are converted to the system.

Step 3 Click the OK button to convert. Because only tables are purged during the conversion process, and the data format is not processed, there are many blank lines or first spaces in Figure 1, and the results are shown in Figure 3 after the user uses the Word tool of WPS for subsequent processing.

Data supplement or Append

In some special cases, the user needs to add or append some information to the tabular data in the WPS text, in the previous version, even if the user uses the WPS form to be added to the WPS text, the operation is more troublesome.

Note: Because ordinal numbers use automatic numbering, when you import data, the beginning of the line uses commas to occupy the place.

Step 2 uses WPS text to open the Address Book document, pasting two rows of data from the previous illustration into the next row of the table.

After you select two lines of text in step 3, choose the table | convert | Text to Table menu item. In the pop-up dialog box, set the separator "other character (O)" to "Full-width comma" (,), the system will automatically identify and specify the number of conversion columns 5 columns, because the new data needs to match the original table, so users need to adjust the number of columns is: 6 columns , the results of the adjustment are shown in Figure 6.
