Need Help with Excel to CATIA Data Export for Airfoil Points
I'm currently facing a bit of a roadblock in my CATIA project and could use some expertise. I'm trying to export data from Excel to CATIA to create points for an airfoil, but I keep encountering an "incompatibilité de type" error.
I've tried several troubleshooting steps, including checking data formats, unit compatibility, and making sure my CATIA and Excel versions align, but I'm still stuck.
Has anyone else run into this issue before or have any insights into what might be causing the problem? Any tips or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Please verify the following:
1. are you running CATIA V5
2. are you using the PointSplineLoftFromExcel.xls spreadsheet that includes the excel macro to transfer the coordinates into CATIA?
3. are your coordinates in mm units?
If you can confirm all 3 above, then double-check the format of your spreadsheet is correct. I haven't used this macro for a number of years, but I have used it successfully in the past.
