One thing to keep in mind when using the to export 2da files:

If you are using text as an appearance name for things like creature appearances, placeables, wings, or tails, you'll want to re-add quotation marks around imported text so that the macro that creates the 2da files will properly export them again (Excel likes to strip out the quotation marks from 2das you import).

Something I figured out years ago when using this to import the CEP's appearance.2da file, but I'm not sure if everyone has picked up that trick.

I still use this all the time, since I'm always editing 2das for my PW. I highly recommend it to anyone editing any 2da that is more than 10 lines long. :)

I've started working on an updated version of the spreadsheet which will incorporate some more advanced features for loading 2das and creating mergable sheets. I don't currently have a projected date of when I will be uploading it as I am also working on bug fixing for my Grimoire spell haks and continuing to update the nwnwiki site for that project.

To be honest I havn't tried this yet. When I have a reason to I will add a vote with my other vault ID to adjuct my contricution to the score. However a trusted person has said it works and that is good enough for me. So this rating is based on what the description says it does and a trusted/admired person's opinion of it.

An excellent and simple tool to use. Does everything I need without complicating things. Thanks for putting it together.

Easy to use for the beginner, yet can be made to be extrememly powerful if you are familiar with Excel and VBA programming.
