For avoidance of doubt, only data I see is this (values obscured).
Sadly, the above is insufficient data to help you with your task.
Thanks for your time.

No problem.
Let’s try this from the other end. I made up a spreadsheet in Numbers with some imaginary data. Here it is:
Name | StudentID | Class Year |
---|---|---|
Able Simpson | 1 | 2026 |
Baker McGee | 2 | 2027 |
Chuck Colson | 3 | 2027 |
Doris Leftright | 4 | 2025 |
Here’s what it looks like in Numbers:
Now, I select the date and the headers, as in the illustration, and paste it into the view pane of a Tinderbox document.
If we select one student, say Able Simpson, the text pane has displayed attributes with the other columns of the table:
The complete file imported perfectly when I imported it from numbers. I took the excel file, saved it in numbers, and then imported to Tinderbox. VICTORY!!
The problem may have been that I don’t know excel very well. I take the excel files sent to me by the administration and save the columns I actually need in Numbers. I do all of my work in Numbers.
Thank you everyone. The Tinderbox file is beautiful now.
