Rows in my Excel 2010 spreadsheet keeping getting Hidden. when they do, I have to unhide each row manually

I have been using Excel for quite awhile but have not run into this issue. I have Excel 2010 and Windows 7.

One of the main spreadsheets that I use has developed an annoying, quirk and time-consuming problem. For no apparent reason, groups of rows become Hidden. They seem to do this all by themselves (at least I do not do anything and the spreadsheet is not shared)

When I notice that large groups of rows are hidden, I have to manually unhide each row. I am not able to select the one before the missing block and the one "after" the block and do unhide. Nothing happens. so one by one I have to do the unhide.

HELP .. this is very time consuming.

Excel 2016 Pivot Table: Crazy phantom month.

I have my Excel 2016 source data with 81 Rows and 8 Cols. I also have an Excel 2016 Pivot Table. The 1st column has the months of the year, the 2nd column has the Sum Of the Total Sales for each month.

There are 2 problems:

1) The month of January is missing!! It's like a Phantom cracy blank month took over the month of January, and I do have data for the month of January, as follows:

1/15/16  Central  Gill, Ty       M  Binder                46    1.88    86.48  Off. Spply

1/22/16  North    Ruiz, Juan  M  Scissors            110    5.00  550.00 Off. Supply

1/25/16  Central  Day, Eva    F   Staple Rmvrs       67    1.06    71.02 Off. Supply

I have also sorted the month column in month order too.

2) There is a strange data or entries as depicted in the image. Unknown how that data <1/15/2016 and <12/22/2016 got in there.

Any idea on how to correct those two strange situations?

Your feedback will be highly appreciated and welcomed.

Can we still pull from Wikipedia in Excel 2016 Power Query?

I was trying to pull data using Power Query from web sources in Excel 2016. (I have an E3 license, so all the bits are there.)

If I go to the Data tab, New Query, then Data Catalog (I think this is where to go based on the 2013 Excel tutorial I am playing with) I am asked to sign in. If I sign in with a regular MS account, I get nothing. If I sign in with my Work account, I get an error that:

  • Enterprise Feature Unavailable
  • Your Organization No Longer has access to enterprise features. Please log out to access public data.

However, as stated, it is requiring me to log in somehow and my regular Microsoft Account doesn't allow anything. So:

  1. Is there something wrong with our office 365 account I need to get fixed?
  2. Am I doing it wrong?
  3. Is this part of the issue I've heard that many (all?) web sources were removed from the MS catalog because in 2013 they were english only and MS had no intention of adding a feature that excluded the rest of the world's languages?

When 2 of my users who are just upgarded to Windows 10 build 1151 version 14393,  they receive the error below

I have already enquire from my printer vendor and installed their latest driver. It is not a printer issue. Besides, the same document only occurs issue with the users of build 1151 version 14393.

The excel version of users with issue is Microsoft Excel version: Excel 2002 (10.6871.6870) SP3

Our other users of Windows 10 build 1151 version 10586.494, have no such issue.

I understand that our excel version may be too old and should be upgraded, however, I believe that unless it is spoiled, there is not need to fix it. The excel still works like a charm for us.

Please advise how can I resolve the issue.

Thanks!

Excel very slow to open files

Recently installed Microsoft office 2010 pro and certain excel files are very slow to open. Every other program opens just fine, however when I open certain documents they can take up to 2-3 minutes to open. If I try to open multiple excel documents at the same time my computer freezes. I disabled all of the add-ons, however it did not do anything. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue?

pivot table 2010 olap formatting ignore for null value

Dear ALL,

 Please see below a screenshot made with Exel pivottable 2016 (installed onto my computer).

   I defined a back_color on a level of my hiererchy. As you can see below, this formatting displays correctly even the meaure quantity is empty in 2016. I made the same exercise with Excel pivottable 2010 (version installed on the client machine) but it doesn't work. The cell formatting cell displays only if value exists.

Be careful, there are two measures in my example: Quantity and Value SEK. For quantity, we prevent a rollup on a level superior

Have you an idea? Is it a bug on Excel 2010? For info, the option Fill Color is ticked in both version.

Thanks in advance

Calculation transparency behind FORECAST.ETS function

Hi,

With the new office version of 2016 the FORECAST.ETS function is added. I find this forecast to be very helpful, but in order to trust it completely I would like to break it down to a manual procedure that would give me the same results. The solution I am looking for could be VBA based or built in a sheet.

Any guidance on how to approach this is extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've attached an image below to show you what is happening. The date filed formats differently in the pivot table than it is in the data source. I've formatted the value as m/d/yyyy as you can see in the image.

Why is this happening and how can I change it?

Lookup Function disappears from cell it was typed in

Morning all,

I have a repeatable issue that is quite irritating.

I am making 3 simple lookups for some data I am analyzing.

I start typing my formula in cell F2 on a sheet named All.

My table to lookup is on sheet blank_bday.

I added the $ to make the table static, and pick the column and type false for match type.

When I hit enter the formula is not in cell F2 on sheet All it is in cell A1 on sheet Blank_bday.

What the heck is going on?

It has happened 6 times and is repeatable.

What is the matter with my application? Do I need to repair or reinstall?

Or is this a bug?

How to change connection string for an Excel File Data Connection?

August 31, 2016, 12:48 am

I've been needing to use and configure an Excel Workbook to retrieve data from another workbook (which is uploaded to a Document Library in SharePoint) and upload it to SharePoint 2013. So far, I am successful in retrieving and refreshing the data via the desktop application (Excel 2010) but I am having trouble when it is uploaded to SharePoint. I am receiving the error that "Sheet1$ does not exist".

Based on my troubleshooting, I traced it back to this:

It seems that what happens is, everytime I try to refresh the data from SharePoint, it 'creates' a temporary file as specified there in the connection string above instead of using the original Excel file (which is also uploaded into SharePoint). I tried accessing the file but it seemed to be corrupted or locked by some service / user. I tried manually changing the data source URL but whenever I save the properties, it reverts back and configures a new data source URL automatically. Granted, ANY CHANGE that I make to the connection string is ignored.

Why can't I change it? Is there any way to manually specify my own connection string? Or is Excel really just configured to auto-populate the connection string for an Excel file type of connection?

64-bit Excel 2016 issue (Freezing/slow loading)

August 30, 2016, 12:32 pm

I have a Lenovo desktop with i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz with 12GB RAM. Windows 10 64-bit OS with Microsoft Office Pro 2016 64-bit installed. Even with this configuration, my Excel files (which are anywhere from 100mb - 500mb) are slow to load and freeze when running calculations on data with 70k - 80k rows. I check the Task manager and it's usually the CPU that's running at 100% with 30%-50% Memory used. (I've seen Excel use a maximum of 2.5 GB RAM till now). I have a few questions:

1) When using 64 bit Office, is there a difference in performance when running Excel files generated using 32 bit Office and those generated using 64-bit Office? I'm using files copied over from an old machine which had 64-bit OS but 32-bit Office. If I copy paste all the data from these files into a new workbook and save it on my new machine , will it result in increased speed and performance?

2) The freezing occurs especially when 3-4 files are open concurrently, and when running Sort and Filter commands. Are these tasks known to be CPU/RAM hogging tasks?

3) Does 64-bit Office have bugs/ issues which are not present in the 32-bit Office? Do I require 64-bit Office when working with files that will go upto 500mb?

4) In your experience, is this an issue with CPU or RAM? What will ensure a smoother and faster performance, a better CPU or more RAM? Will getting SSD over HDD result in better performance?

Thank you.

Excel row height changes when it should not change

I have a client using Office 2010 on a Citrix server. They are using Windows XP Pro SP3 for the desktop and the server is running Windows Server 2003 R2 STD.

I have two users working in a spreadsheet in Excel 2010. The spreadsheet opens fine and they can perform their updates by either adding manually or doing a cut and paste. The problem comes up when all of the sudden a number of rows in the spreadsheet change height for not reason. The spreadheet has the row height set to 14.5 but for some reason the rows that change height sent the height to 405.9. Usually all the user has to do is go back and reset the row height on these cells and save before they can go back to making changes.

It's more annoying then anything else so if someone could provide any solutions, it would be greatly apppreciated.

thanks, Joe Trainor
