Suggestion for slight improvement to Excel

Hi,

I would just like to offer a suggestion for a slight improvement to Excel which would make things a little quicker for me. I currently use version 2010 so hopefully not wasting anyones time if it has already been done in 365.

In excel when you highlight various figures you get the average, count and sum in bottom right hand corner in the status bar. I would like it if you could directly click on each of these figures and copy the figure and paste it somewhere else. I know you can create a formula in the sheet to get each of these figures but I think if you could just copy it from there it would make it so much quicker if you want to put that figure in another sheet etc.

Many thanks for your time.

Regards


Unwanted prefix of "Copy of " added to file name of opened Excel attachments

How can I stop the prefix of "Copy of " from being added to the file name when I save an Excel file that was mailed as an attachment?  

It is very annoying to have to keep deleting that unwanted addition to my filenames.  

Copy row based on value of a cell

I need a macro that will let me copy a row of data from one worksheet to another based on the value in one of the cells.

My source worksheet looks like the following

 ABC
1AppleTreeRed
2GrapeVineRed
3OrangeTreeOrange

I want to select only rows with the word tree in Column B and past the row into a new worksheet.  The new work sheet should look like the following.  I can't have blank rows for those that are skipped.  My original file has 100k rows so I don't want to have any blank rows in the new file.

 

 ABC
1AppleTreeRed
2OrangeTreeOrange

Excel 2010 changes links from network location to local user appdata on opening a 2003 file

As discussed here but not resolved http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/excel/thread/fc470dd1-70df-4bad-98db-3d94a68206c7. On opening a 2003.xls fle that contains linked cells to a network location the link paths are changed to the current local users appdata path. This really is an issue for us, we are a large coporate user with thousands of linked workbooks often with links to several other workbooks, it's not really an acceptable solution to have to manually update the links each time a 2010 users opens an existing 2003 doc.

Can anybody offer a solution?

 

 

How to multiply a number to one cell

The problem I'm having is, is setting a cell B3 to multiple a number I place in the cell by lets say 5.  This is what I'm trying to do: in B# is price of a book that has to be multiplied by 5, I can't find the right formula to do this. ( I want to put $ 10.40 in cell and have it automatically change to $ $ 52.00. I don't want to have two cells for this process because I have several other cells that have to do the same procedure, and then the group multiplies by consecutive numbers to 24. So it would be a time saver to just put the unit price in the cell and it changes to the total cost for the item in same cell.. Trying to show cost for courses with all material needed. courses start with five people and go up to 24 and I already  have 26 columns and 26 rows. Thanks for the help.   

Importing *.DBF files into Excel 2007

importing *.DBF files into Excel 2007

I have an XYZ.DBF file that I've imported into Excel 2007 but it doesn't parse properly on the import.  The entire record goes into Column A of the Excel 2007 worksheet, Sheet 1.  Columns B and up don't have anything in them.  I think a record key is in the first several characters of each record.  To do the import I select the file from Windows Explorer>right-click to Open and then select Excel.  When I've tried double-clicking the file I am prompted with the select the program to use.  FWIW, the actual extension (DBF) IS capitalized!
In the past I've imported *.dbf very easily.  I'm perplexed on this import.  I don't think it's a DBF v2.  I was told the file structure was from a Visual FoxPro custom application.  What I'm wanting to do is to import and then map the fields for importing into a new application that is more versatile.

Any suggestions appreciated!

Thanks!

Excel 2010 Pivot table conditional formatting lost on file re-open

I have this problem: Excel 2010 Pivot - Conditional Format - "All Cells Showing" - converts to range when file closed

Simply put my "All Cells Showing" conditional formatting rules converted to a range ($F$1:$H$55 etc) after saving and re-opening.

Unfortunately the fix in the link above is of no help.

I have even simplified this example as much as possible but the issue persists in two workbooks.

My workbook contains only the following:

  • One datasource 
  • One Pivot table
  • Values by date (Columns) by category (Rows) in the tables
  • Conditional formatting on "All Cells Showing category values"

I can recreate it from scratch and the problem always returns.

Also I've done this before with other customers and it worked, so is this a bug and is there a workaround or fix?

Thanks,

Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in not working after update

I have originally posted this question at answers.microsoft.com and have been re-directed to post here. (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-excel/microsoft-excel-2013-add-in-not-working-after/298aff03-c90a-4a2a-b67b-07b6f3c7648c)

---------------------------------------------------------

We are an organization with over 200 users and are currently using Microsoft Office 2013 (Click-to-run install via Office 365 portal), we have noticed that in Excel when we apply the monthly Office update, the add-in (e.g. Analysis Toolpak) would stop working with the following error message displayed.

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

I tried updating from 15.0.4631.1004 to 15.0.4641.1003, 15.0.4641.1003 to 15.0.4649.1004, they all gave the same results.

I have checked the captioned file path and it is indeed missing, I think the update mechanism messed up the add-in somehow, a full re-install would fix it as quick or online repair is not doing the trick.  This is not the only add-in it is affecting as there are some 3rd party add-ins are affected as well.

Please advise how we can fix this without needing to re-install Microsoft Office.  Thank you!

Changes to Excel link sources are not saved after closing the workbook

We've had several instances over the last few weeks where users are updating the source files for various links within a spreadsheet, saving their changes and closing the file. Then, next time another user goes into the file, the links have reverted back to their previous values, as if the first user never went in and changed them.

Anyone ever hear of such a thing? The user changing the links is running Excel 2013. The user opening the file for review is using Excel 2010. Could there be some issue there?

File that ends in double extension fails to open e.g. '.xls.xlsx' produces errors.

When a user saves a file in Excel it will end up with a double extension. This is probably due to the user adding .xls on to the end thinking that excel will change the file type, however, it just saves as Accumulated Leave 2014.xls.xlsx .   This then doesn't open at all. I should point out that the environment that this is happening in is:

Windows 8.1 Enterprise w/ Excel 2013

Remote File server running Server 2008  (R1 or 'classic')

The file's icon is made transparent and has a red X.

Is this a bug or something in excel?

Also why when you specify a new extension doesn't it change the save as type?

Appreciate any insights,

Thanks, Evan

Slicer VBA - Styling the slicer

Hi Everyone!

I have about 60+ different workbooks I display in SharePoint using Excel Web Access Web Parts.

To make the aesthetics / visualizations even better, I am writing some code to loop through all the excel files to remove chart borders so they blend right into the page! Here below is a snippet of me removing chart borders:

Sub removeBorders()
    Dim myChart As ChartObject
    For Each myChart In Sheets("Sheet1").ChartObjects
        myChart.Chart.ChartArea.Border.LineStyle = xlNone
    Next myChart
End Sub

Question: How do I access the style properties of the slicer? I want to remove the borders from the slicers as well.

Thanks for any advice or code you offer!! it's much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Setting style to a collapsed cell in pivottable, also changes the style for the child items when show details

Hi,

I have a pivottable, say i have Month and Week fields on Column. Have other fields on Row and the Data fields (say Cost and Profit) on Row as well.

When i collapse the Month column (say JAN), so that the Weeks within JAN get collapsed and I see subtotal values.

Now, i set the style of Cost@JAN cell (by getting the range and doing range.Style = "my_custom_style")

Now, when i expand the JAN field (showdetails or click on the "+" button), I see that the child items (cells corresponding to Cost@Weeks under JAN) inherited the style from parent.

Is it expected ?

I am doing it through code in my excel addin (office 2013)

I tried creating a dummy pivottable and setting the style manually, 

Link to sample excel - collapse column "mon1", click on first data cell "5", select a style from "Styles" group in the Home tab, then expand "mon1". All child cells get styled

I am trying out since 2 days on this bug so wanted to check if its some settings exposed that am missing or is expected behavior ?

Would be great if someone can help me on this.
