Okay, I will help you sort out this issue, Can you please elaborate your issue further to let me configure the problem?

I see, You can insert an entire sheet from Excel into your note. All cells that either have information in them or are between cells that do will be inserted. You can also choose to just add individual charts or tables from a spreadsheet. Here’s how to perform these actions:

1. Open your note and place your cursor in a note page where you want the Excel content to appear.

   The content will appear below and to the right of the cursor.

2. Select the Insert tab and click or tap the Excel icon and choose Existing Excel Spreadsheet from the drop-down list.

   The Excel icon won’t appear in OneNote if Excel is not installed on the same PC that OneNote is installed on. If you don’t have Excel on your current machine, use the File Attachment button instead.

   A Browse window appears.

3. Browse to the file you want, select it, and then click or tap Insert.

   The Insert File window appears with several options on it.

4. Select Insert Spreadsheet or Insert a Chart or Table.

   If you choose Insert Spreadsheet, the spreadsheet appears in your note, and you can ignore the rest of this list.

   If you choose Insert a Chart or Table, the Custom Insert window appears asking what you want to add. Depending on the formatting of your spreadsheet, charts or tables in the spreadsheet will have a name and number.

5. Select the charts and/or tables that you want to appear in the note and click or tap OK.

   The charts and/or tables you select appear in your note.

​

You also have the option to convert it to a fully functioning Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

1. In OneNote, open the page that contains the table you want to convert.

2. Activate the table by clicking inside any of its cells and reveal the hidden Table Tools tab.

3. In the Table Tools tab, choose Convert to Excel Spreadsheet.

OneNote converts the table to an Excel spreadsheet and inserts a icon on the page and an embedded dynamic preview of the file. When you change or update the spreadsheet, the preview on the notes page automatically updates.

As long as you don’t insert Excel data as a printout, you can edit it after it has been inserted into or created in your note.

To edit Excel data, follow these steps:

1. Right-click or press and hold on the spreadsheet, chart, or table in your note and choose Edit from the menu that appears.

   Excel opens the content for editing.

2. Edit the spreadsheet, chart, or table in Excel and click or tap Save in Excel to save it and close Excel.
