XL98: Conditional Formatting Is Not Saved When You Save as HTML (179034)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q179034 SYMPTOMS
If you save a workbook as a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) document, some
of the cell formatting may not be saved with the workbook.
CAUSE
If you use conditional formatting to apply formats to cells, the formatting
is not saved with the workbook when you save it as an HTML document.
Currently, there is no way to save the workbook as an HTML document and
preserve this formatting.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem
and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it
becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
The Internet Assistant Wizard is not new to Microsoft Excel. However, it
has changed significantly since it was released as a free add-in available
on the Microsoft World Wide Web site in January 1996. You can now install
the Internet Assistant Wizard (install Web Page Authoring) for Microsoft
Office or Microsoft Excel. This wizard has been enhanced to take advantage
of the new Internet features of Microsoft Office and Microsoft Internet
Explorer.
With the Internet Assistant Wizard, you can leverage existing Microsoft
Excel spreadsheet data to create and distribute documents that can be
viewed online with a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. By
clicking a series of buttons in the wizard, you can convert spreadsheet
data to a separate Web document or into an existing Web document.
