Are you able to import it using the menu ?

Tools>Assistant>Import Data

forward slash or two backslashes

Try it with / or \\ instead of backslash in the path name. Maple uses the backslash for other purposes.

 L := Import("C:/parameters15.xlsx", "Sheet1", "A2:I2");

Bug in Import command?

Hi lovinash

I independently experienced the same problem as you did. I searched the Internet for a solution and found your question at Mapleprimes. That's the reason I am answering this late. In the meantime Maple 16 has been released, but I guess the same problem happens in both versions. After looking for solutions for a long time without success, I tried closing down the Maple file with the import code. I reexecuted the worksheet and suddenly the error messages disappeared! Isn't that a bug?

Regards,

Erik

Size of excel file

My problem doesnt seem to be due to the code, but due to the size of my spreadsheet. I am now working on finding the maximum number of rows that Maple can take on my computer so that I can spit the files. Thanks

It works

djc 521 tell right.

Try now:

> with(ExcelTools);

> L := Import("C:\\parameters15.xlsx", "Sheet1", "A2:I2");
