Continental – installation XLS Extension

Community Extensions

Hi @arbe your last sentence i true - Knime don’t need Excel installation. But my problem didn’t gone, unfortunately. Next day, all XLS nodes from Continental Extension gone :frowning_face:

My admin gave me new server with clear system. I made some test on Knime 4.1.3 and my summary is:

  • XLS node appears only in version 0.8.2

  • when I installed continental version 1.1 and 1.2 it’s only “utility node”
    obraz

I will use lowest version of this extension but I have a problem with existing workflows. I supposed that the resolved is in version 1.1:
•added “from long/unpivoted layout to wide XLS Control Table” option to XLS Control Table Generator

in 1.2 node XLS Control Table Generator show:
