Simple help with implementing Outlook-like GUI
Hi All. I am an experienced unix programmer who sometimes has to do something in the windows world, and always has newbie-questions. Basically I want to write an application program that looks like outlook in that it has nice icons down the left hand side that choose the content of the main area in the right hand side. So I started the MFC App wizard, and got me a SDI program with a CLeftFrame (CTreeView) and a CMainFrame (CFrameWnd). Then I prepared the following snippet of code to draw the buttons: // Create a pushbutton CBitmapButton* pmyButton; pmyButton = new CB...

Using Symbols (&/-) in In Two Dependent Drop Down Boxes. Can't get the VLOOKUP to work!!!
Hey all, I have a category list of products and then a list of brand names for each product. So, I set up a series of drop down boxes (using Data Validation) for the categories and then a second series dependent which category you pick in the first, for the brand names. HERE IS MY PROBLEM: When I set up the category list I had to create them as One-Word-Names. I tried to set up a lookup table with the real category names (multiple words and symbols), but I can't seem to get the first drop down box to reference the lookup without then screwing up the Data Validation of the second (depende...

How to preserve conditional formatting on a web query table result
I have an external database that Excel queries and returns two columns of dates. I can set up a conditional format (in one colum) so that the dates in each row of the column change colour if the corresponding columns date is different. My problem is how to COPY and PASTE the conditional formatting across all dates in the one column (so that each cell looks at the date in the corresponding cell next to it)? Any ideas or suggestions? You can just use the format painter to copy and paste formats -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Simon L" <Simon L@discussions.microsoft.com>...

Microsoft Office Outlook has stopped working
Hello, I just purchased a new computer with Windows 7 Premium Home (64) installed. I am working on moving my data, etc. over from the XP computer to my new computer. I have installed Office 2003 on the new computer and all programs operate fine with exception to Outlook 2003.

Query of a subform
I'm looking to create a query that will pull subform data into it. The subform (four of them) have data that gets manually entered. All the boxes in the subform have dropdown boxes except one.

Outlook Client v 1.2 not working in offline mode
Hello, we have installed several CRM Outlook Clients, version 1.2, on the laptops of our salespeople. They are able to work online perfectly, and when going offline, synchronization seems to work, as well. However, after going offline and synchronizing, when they try to open any of the CRM folders, they get an "Access Denied" message (this does not happen in online mode!). I have adjusted the permissions on the UNC Snapshot share on the SQL server, and the Publication Access Lists on the SQL server, and still get the same errors (identical on all of the clients). Does anyone have a...

fill does not work for me what can I do
I have 2 columns I need to fill automatically and the help directions using the fill handle just do not work for me. I've tried repeatedly with no effect. I am using Excel 2007 in Windows 7 64 bit. I checked Excel options and the drag fill options are selected. But nothing I do seems to work. Is there some other way (using menu options) to fill a series of cells without using the drag fill tool? Here is what I need to fill: - One column starting with 1 and increasing consecutively. - One adjacent column that would start with 500 and increase consecutively by 1 through the column. ...

Parameterized query in form
My form exports a query. The query needs to select some or all "MICAP"s and some or all "Project"s. My form has an option box [optMICAPS] and another option box [optProjects]. When the option radio button is cleared, a combo box is made visible for selecting a MICAP or Project (cbMICAPID, etc.) The underlying query has a "where" clause like: WHERE MICAPID = IIf([Forms]![frmLaborHistoryExtract]![optMICAPS],"*",[Forms]![frmLaborHistoryExtract]![cbMICAPID]) Similarly for the Project selection. The MICAPID is numeric, as is the ProjectID. When th...

ODBC import with Excel 2007 with Query Wizard
Really strange problem with Excel 2007 and the Query Wizard. I've done this hundreds of times with Excel 2000 and 2003. The set-up is Windows XP, Office 2007 connecting via ODBC to a SQL 2000 server via a ODBC system DSN connection. After selecting the DSN connection from Other connections, the Query Wizard asks you to choose the tables and columns. All of the tables are shown but in the columns, some are missing. Certainly the primary key and text columns. If you cancel using the column choosers and switch to entering your query manually (e.g. select * from companies) it works fi...

Query-Based Distros for Sender Restriction
Can I use a query based distribution list as a Sender Restriction? i.e., if I have a query based distribution list which is "All Email Users", can I add that to the list of allowed senders on a different distribution list to effectively block external senders from sending mail to that other distribution list? The reason I ask is that I'm tryig to write a vbscript to go through a number of distribution lists and change this but recieve an error if I attempt to set it to a query based distribution list. A regular distribution list works fine. The odd thing is that if I go into t...

Make it more simple or intuitive to do simple things
I appreciate the fact that applications are becoming more versatile and able to do things that we hardly thought possible in the past but I feel that in this added complexity you are losing sight of the need to do simple things easily without resorting to trial and error or consulting "help" which often anyhow doesn't lead one straight to the solution! An example is how to produce a chart with a series of months i.e Jan Feb Mar etc appearing on the X axis. This is no doubt something that resulted naturally in the first versions of Excel charts or in a competitor's ea...

Curious Database Query Question
When creating a "New Database Query" from another Excel workbook, when you get to the "Select Workbook" dialog, there is a small checkbox labelled "Read Only". According to the help file, it has this to say: "To prohibit updates to this file, select the Read Only check box." I don't understand why this is an issue. In my understanding, database query is a one-way transfer of data from the external source to your excel workbook...if you edit the data in your workbook, that *doesn't* change the data back in the external source...right? Am I wr...

Merge different queries
Hello all, I have two tables where I enter my stock trades as well as foreign exchange (FX) trades. The two tables contain different fields as the trading instruments require different entries.

Now, I would like to merge the two queries in order to see my overall profit and losses no matter if the trade is a stock or FX trade.
