Someone sent me a picture of an excel print-out via fax (has to legally and can't send the electronic file), is there a software that will take the picture and input the information in a new Excel as a working doc (not a input pictures).

Are there any formulas or just raw data?
If just raw data, any scan to text format should work, and you can import as a CSV/Special and just have the text enter into cells.

If you have Adobe Acrobat you can scan or take a picture of it, convert to PDF, enhance the scan to recognize the text, then export to excel. Toss up that it'll recognize the data correctly but works.

OCR software from your scanner should do it, but you will be doing a lot of cut and pasting.
