how can i apply conditional formatting by code ?
Say that there is a table T_PERSONAL [Name (text), Surname (text), Salary (integer)]. I created a Tabular Form (F_PERSONAL) which retrieves information from T_PERSONAL. I want to put a image for a specific record on the form, if the record satisfy some specific criteria. For other record which does not satisfy the criteria, image should be invisible. Say that, if [Name (text)] ~text13~ is "ALBERT", Image Object ~Image13~ should be visible. I dont suppose that Image Object should be included in T_PERSONAL. It will be inserted manualy during design stage of Tabular Form. I would not as...

Trouble Entering Old Date Formats
Hi, I want to enter and format dates prior to 1901 so that I can calculate ages on a family history research page. Without looking too hard I think that dates start around 1900 and when i enter dates in the 1800s, I cant enter them in any date format as they only seem to enter as general text. Having picked up numerous tips from this site, Im sure someone will have a simple explanation for me as to what I am overlooking.

page format lost with 2007
We upgraded to Office 2007 at my company just this past week. I was frustrated to find that the format of documents (programs, brochures, invitations, etc.) I had in Publisher 2003 does not always translate into 2007. For example, I have a 1/2 page program set up to print two per 8 1/2x11 sheet: when I opened this with Publisher 2007, it was set to print a single full page program per sheet. In a time crunch, I gave up and printed the way it had opened. I have since gotten it switched back over to 1/2 page, by re-selecting landscape layout and multiple copies per page. Easy enou...

Automatic, conditional chart creation from separate files [Excel 2007]
I have a number of separate files (Excel 2007). Each file contains several sheets with test results of a few students. The students (the same, all the time) are evaluated each month using the same test, and each month a new sheet is created for each of them. For example: Workbook 1: Worksheet A (John), Worksheet B (Jennifer), Worksheet C (Anna) Workbook 2 (a month later): Worksheet A (Jennifer), Worksheet B (John), Worksheet C (Anna) I`d like to create a separate file with charts depicting the mean results for each student. The chart would retrieve data automatically from every file s...

axis value extension
How can I extend the x and y axis value in Excel charts? (These are the titles next to the axis, which appear to cut off if want to write anything long) Cheers J Jose, One option is to delete the titles and replace them with textboxes from the drawing toolbar.

Expand Conditional Formatting to all Rows
I cannot get my conditional formatting rule to apply to my entire data set. My data are set in rows. I want the entire row to format (color fill) when two specific cells within that row equal each other. I can get the single row to work properly, but I can't see how to expand this formula down to each row on my worksheet. I have read several other posts regarding this issue but am still not able to get it to work, can someone help me out? -- KKD Have you tried using the format painter which is probably on your tool bar.

Help saving embedded animated images in GIF format
Hello, I am having trouble saving embedded images in Outlook XP emails, however unlike many others who post here, I have NO trouble saving GIF images in IE. I have done everything that is normally suggested: * cleared my cache * deleted all unknown/damaged object files (from TIFS) * increased my cache size * rebooted But the problem persists. When I attempt to save embedded animated GIF images, in an Outlook email, only the BMP file type can be selected. This problem holds for all e-mails (ie: it is not the case of a particular e-mail being corrupt). Any ideas, Ken ...

Format Date Display in Access ADP
Is there a way to force a combo box to display a date pulled from a SQL Server database in a specific format? The date is being displayed as YYYY-MM-DD which is the default for SQL Server. I seem to recall that combo box's ignore the Format property. Actually, I solved my own problem. I figured out that I needed to add another column to the call back function that loads up the combo box. The new column has the date formated as YYYY-MM-DD which, given that its ColumnWidth is set to 0 causes the correct date format to be displayed. The second column, which is visible, di...

Breaking links loses formatting & blank cells in 2007
Hi. I'm the latest recipient here at work of the upgrade from Office 2003 to 2007. In Excel 2003, I had a number of presentation charts linked to data on external files. Prior to publishing, I'd do a save-as under a different file name and break all the links to the data from the charts. Doing it this way somehow saved all the missing values as well as the data-dependent formatting of the cells (for example, the horizontal axis would display values as dates instead of numbers). However, I repeat the process in 2007, and I lose both the formatting and all my gaps are now 0&#...

Format field doesn't transfer
Hi, We just updated our Office from '97 to XP and we are running into this problem: We are trying to merge excel fields into word. It works fine until the amount that we are merging has two zeros after the decimal point. It transfers the other amounts, e.g. 985.45, but not 985.00. Also, I have to physically type a dollar sign before the the field in order for it to show up. When we were working with office '97 we were doing fine. Please help, Ann After you select your Excel file as a data source, you should see a 'Confirm Data Source' dialog box. From that list, ch...

Automatic DL of transactions in wrong currency!

Excel 2003 changes format of earlier charts

Font size changing automatically
Hi, I have a user who is having an issue with the font size changing automatically as she enters data in Excel and Word. I have found articles that show the Word hotkeys Shift+Ctrl+ > or < to increase/decrease font, but have found nothing about Excel. Does anyone know of a hotkey that would do that in Excel? I'm trying to narrow this down, and certainly would believe user error, but even Shft+Ctrl+> or < is a hard one to swallow, (since you don't need Shift to type a period or comma). Has anyone else heard of this problem? Thanks for any suggestions. We ...

Automatic Axis Titles in Excel 2007

problem with adding column, formatting

Sport Times Formats (elapsed time)
Does anyone have the definitive word on how to handle elapsed time? I need to track and manipulate swimtimes in Excel. Excel gets SO confused, and converts the times into various items. I can't believe that after 10yrs of using Excel, this ability is either missing or so hard to use. Please enlighten me! Thanks, Tom M. Tom, As you refer to swimtimes, I assume you want 1/100th of a sec. All you need to do is format the cells, including the result cell, as hh:mm:ss.00 and just subtract the end time from the start time. As Excel stores time as a fraction of 1 day, it is straightforw...
