Uploading an Excel file

Using an Excel file can be done by making a link to the name of the file: Media:01EU-A01-spread123.xls. Make the link by using edit and it will be red in the article. Be sure to give the file an exclusive name: therefor always start with the name of your competition and then your team number. So for instance 01EU-A01-thenameyouchose.xls.

Follow these instructions to upload the file:

• Max 100kb (no pictures etc.)!

• Max. version of Excel is 2003 (so bring it back to this version)!

If all of this is done and you click on the link the platform will open the file full screen Media:01EU-A01-thenameyour chose.xls

Here's an example file already uploaded: Media:NL03-M01-example.xls Check this

Pay attention: if you close the Excel file you will close the whole platform, so use the back button. You can, as anywhere, also right click on the link and save the file on your PC.

Blanks in names

If you embed a MP3, photo or something else, it is advisable not to have blanks (gaps) in the names of the files, for instance on YouTube, Flickr or Earth. Instead of blanks use underscores (_) or the minus sign (-): this is something special in the software. <no wiki> Do NOT use ' or * and & either </no wiki>. This will cause problems in the software.
