insert Excel table into forum post

Does anyone know a way to insert an Excel 2013 table into a PA forum post and keep some formatting? I can't get the columns to line up and it's hard to read.

What I have done, if it is not too big, is take a screen shot photo and add that.
I think you can attach the whole file and the post will show a link to expand it.

Just checked - yes, you can upload an xls file.

What I do is copy the table to a texteditor (notepad) and wrap the lines with
code

/code
'code' and '/code' will need to be in square brackets [...]

don't change the font at PACE

copy/paste from notepad


if any cell/column (except the rightmost) has more than 8 characters,
insert a blank column before copying to notepad to make it align correctly.


Code:
FHLD	2	2	7	1	Kaya'S Sweetheart-3/1
FHLD	2	2	5	4	Kaya'S Sweetheart - 3/1 (0.85)
MEA	1	1	4	3	Invictus Hanover - 5/2 (0.69)
FHLD	3	4	1	3	One Line Guy - 5/2 (0.9)
FHLD	4	1	6	2	K R'S Cruiser - 9/2 (0.88)
MEA	4	8	9	2	Dvc Freewaytofame-5/2
FHLD	6	4	5	1	Waterside Champ-5/2
FHLD	6	4	5	1	Waterside Champ - 5/2 (0.86)
FHLD	7	5	6	8	King For A Queen-3/1
FHLD	7	5	1	6	King For A Queen - 3/1 (0.84)
