Excel Export/Import

  • Translation Builder always use comma as a separator which is not convenient for Canadien French computers (where semicolon is used because comma is a decimal separator).
  • This version use the ClosedXml open source libray to Export and Import Excel files. When exporting it creates a real table that is autosized by column content and can be sorted/filtered.

Display Folder support

  • Fixed DisplayFolder bugs : import from CSV and directly in the UI grid.

UI changes

  • Changed default shortcut keys to avoid Ctrl+C and Ctrl+S which are usually associated with Copy and Save.
  • A wait cursor is shown when importing translations from Excel
  • Always show descriptions for Tables, Columns, Measures and Hierarchies

Sorry for the multiple Pull Requests ...

Can you describe how this pull request handles the comma issue? Does the excel import/export fix that?

Yes by exporting to / importing from an Excel file it solves the comma/semi colon issue of CSV files.

Also, regular business users prefer editing in Excel than in a CSV file.

Do you think it's useful?
