Excel to Google Sheets

Prepare a workbook for a clean Google Sheets import.

Google Sheets silently drops some Excel features on import. This tool rewrites a workbook into a Sheets-safe form — converting unsupported functions, flattening problematic formatting and splitting sheets that exceed the cell limit — then hands you a file that imports without surprises.

Common problems and fixes

Formulas show #NAME? after importing.

A function name is not recognised by Sheets. Re-run the report — anything still flagged as unmapped needs a manual Apps Script equivalent.

Conditional formatting looks different after import.

Sheets supports fewer rule types. The report lists which rules were simplified so you can recreate them natively.
