Hello Gary, In your busy work, Sorry to ask you on the below bug.
Do you have any updates on resolving this issue? Since it is limitation of excel, how do you plan to resolve this? One possible solution would be, can we have one more option in tool to convert .spdx into .CSV files? I mean .spdx would be converted to "<PackageName_version>_PerFileInfo.CSV", "<PackageName_version>_ExtractLicInfo.CSV" etc, In this way, we can avoid the limitation of excel cell, and since .CSV can be text file, limitation won't exist in CSV file. Best regards, Kotrappa.

When I ran the utility against libXcursor, I got the following error message: Unexpected error translating the tag-value to spreadsheet: The maximum length of cell contents (text) is 32,767 characters This was due to the GPL 3 text being added as an extracted license. I do think there is a bug in the error message - it could be more descriptive. I added a bug report to address this: https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1251 I'll take a look at possible solutions after I finish upgrading the tools to the new SPDX 2.0 spec. Let me know if that error message was not produced - it could indicate another bug.

"Per File Info" is kept blank when .spdx is converted to Spreadsheet. Please let us know if there is any discrepancy in input .spdx files. Thanks & Regards Kotrappa.
