With the mouse, select all the alarms in the sheet and do a copy. (CTRL-C or right click - Copy)
Open Excel and paste all the alarms of the sheet into a spreadsheet. (CTRL-V or right click - Paste)
Modify the spreadsheet to add or modify the alarms.
Once the modifications done. Select all the alarms in the spreadsheet and copy/paste in the Alarms sheet of Machine SCADA Expert.
Notes:
If some tag names do not exist in Machine SCADA Expert, there will be a prompt asking to create them.
This workaround will have to be used for each Alarms sheets of the Machine SCADA Expert project.
