To import requirements this is what we've done in the past:
1. create excel file and save as csv
2. For requirement, the you needed to have at least name, notes, and type
3. Project || Import/Export || CSV Import/Export Specifications
4. Name it CSV and make sure comma is delimiter
5. Add name, notes, and type as selected fields (plus whatever else you add)
6. Must have a package to import into
7. Right click package || Import/Export || CSV Import/Export
8. Select CSV file you created and import

If this doesnt directly answer your question I hope it is able to point you in the right direction

Just wondering if you have had success in embedding excel file to the linked document feature in EA.  For some reason, when I do this - it embeds the entire excel spreadsheet instead of a link to it via an icon in the linked document.  Any suggestions on how to approach this?
Thanks
