 * Tobias,
 * After updating to 4.0, I have had issues importing Excel tables. When I have 
   a number like 1.12, it comes into the table as 1.1199999999999, even though it
   is just a simple 1.12 in the Excel file. This did not happen with any earlier
   version of Tablepress.
 * I will give you any additional info you need to look into it. Thanks for the 
   help, as always.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Can you try this again with a .csv file instead of an .xlsx? What does the number
   look like when opening the .csv file with a text editor?
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * With the .csv file, the numbers look great. The only issue is Greek symbols in
   the table headers, but that takes about 20 seconds to fix.
 * As always, you have provided amazing customer service. Thank you much.

 * Hi,
 * good to hear that this helped!
    The Greek symbols issue might be related to the
   character encoding. If you plan to import such files more often, you could try
   opening them in a text editor and saving them again with UTF-8 as the character
   encoding. That should fix this. But quickly fixing them manually might be faster,
   indeed.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias

 * ok, but this by itself does not answer the problem with numbers. I have the same
   issue with TablePress 1.5.1

 * Hi,
 * the Excel import is only experimental and not yet stable, so that things like
   this are not guaranteed to work. Sorry.
    Switching to stable import formats like
   CSV is therefore the best way to go here.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
