added to the following fields.

• The content of the first cell in the row is added to the Title field.
• The content of the remaining cells in the row is added to the Body field.
• If the last cell selected in the row contains numeric data and hyphens only, the content of that cell
can be added to both the Body field and the Code field.
• Refer to P-touch Editor Help for other methods of starting P-touch Editor from within Microsoft
Excel.
• An error message appears if there is no data highlighted, or if the data highlighted contains an object
not supported by P-touch Editor.

Code Field" checkbox on the "Add-Ins" tab of the Options dialog box.
