    *Does Not Compute!*

    Please clarify. A single cell cannot hold an entire table. You can put the image of a table in a cell. You can create one big cell and format it to look like a table is in it. Or, do you want to paste a table into an area that starts at a cell?

    Ok I need to import CSV files into the backend ofmy website.

    Every row represents a product
    Per column it describes what is what ( A:brand, B:product name, C:specs, D:price, E: manufacture etc.

    In the column C:specs I want to add a table per Cell

    Example:
    Attached Images Attached Images

    Personally, I would recommend creating separate columns for the specs (i.e. Input, Output, etc.). This would allow you to later sort/filter for certain specs if needed and is a 'cleaner' method.

    You could, however, create a similar look by using merged cells. Assuming your spec table is 6 rows, then data in your brand, product, and price would actually be 6 merged rows. Then in the spec column you would have the 6 rows to add your other data.

    Be warned, performing other functions on your data (such as SUM, filtering, VLOOKUP, etc.) becomes tricky with the merged cells.
