Changing a text field to a numberHello there!
I imported a MS Project file in excel and I have values in cell like 3.5d (3
and a half days)...I would like to browse all cells and remove the day to
get only the numbers...
The 'd' is always the last character in the cell... I tried using a macro
but failed...
Has anyone any idea about how to browse a column (top to bottom), remove all
the "d" and go to the next column on top
Thank you so muchfor your precious help
Michel

Change area to bar and bar to areaIs there a way to switch the bar to area and area to bar. I have a custom
type using column-area ... my display shows 2009 as area and 2008 as column.
I want to switch look so the 2009 has the column ... is there a way to
switch.
Thanks much!
Hi,
You can select a series and changes it's chart type.
Try selecting the area and changing to bar. Then select the original bar and
change to area.
Alternatively change the layout of your data so the 2008 data comes before
the 2009.
Cheers
Andy

How do I change the order of items in a graph legend?Hello, I am trying to create charts for different timframes, have listed the
data in similar fashion in two different spread sheets. When I create
graphs, the order of legend is not identical in the two graphs. It needs to
be consistent. Appreciate any help along these lines.
Thanks,
Hi,
You can use the series order option in the format dialog to change the
order. Double click a series to display the format dialog.
Note though that the series need to be of the same chart type and on the
same axis in order to manipulate the series order.
Cheers

Choose a defined currency format that you like, and then click on custom (at

IIS Admin Service terminated unexpectedlyI have been having this problem lately on my Exchange 2003 sp1 server sitting
on Windows 2003 sp1. We use Trend Micros ScanMail, and IHateSpam
The IIS Admin Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2

Run the configured recovery program.
Any ideas why this has been happening?

Outlook Express allows this. Thanks.
Once you have the new email open go to View and select

The secret is having the message open because this option
