New Microsoft Office Importer for MicroStation provides support for stacked fractions.

Wednesday, 7 Dec 2005

CLEARWATER, FLORIDA, USA — Axiom, the world’s most experienced developer of time-saving MicroStation software solutions, announces the release of Microsoft Office Importer version 3.9. Microsoft Office Importer enables MicroStation users to import and link nearly unlimited quantities of spreadsheet and word processing data into MicroStation with ease, formatting and reliability. On a test conducted, Microsoft Office Importer had no problem pasting a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet containing 14 columns and 700 rows of data with a single paste.

The new version provides the added the ability for Microsoft Office Importer to import fractions from Microsoft Word and Excel as stacked fractions into MicroStation. A stacked fraction is a single-character representation of what normally would be a three-character fraction. For instance, “½” is the stacked fraction of “1/2″. This enhancement was requested by many Microsoft Office Importer users, like Michael Baker Corporation and Kimley-Horn & Associates.

Current Microsoft Office Importer and MicroStation Productivity Toolkit maintenance holders will receive this update at no additional cost.
