Hi, I have a screenshot of a data table with a lot of rows and i want to put that data into excel without doing it by hand. Is there a way to extract the data from the screenshot/picture and put it into excel so i don't have to type it all out?

Thanks

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Hi, cl21. There is a technology called OCR (Optical Character Recognition).
However, I'm afraid that it won't meet your standard as it is still an ongoing developing technology.
Even if you use the OCR, it will most likely be in unprintable or unknown characters.

However, you could still try it by just searching up on google about it.
I cannot recommend you a software to use because I never had to use it.
