Converting numerical date to text
Does anyone know how to convert to text and keep the integrity of the numerical date? (example: 4/06/97 to 04061997) I can make it look okay, however; the cell is still reflecting the previous value. Not sure what you mean by "the cell is still reflecting the previous value". 1) Formatting doesn't affect the underlying value stored in the cell. Since XL stores dates as integer offsets from a base date, 4/06/97 is the displayed value for the number 35526 (windows default 1900 date system). You can change the formatting to Format/Cells/Number/Custom mmddyyyy but t...

forgot password 03-09-10
Seems I have forgotten a password I used on a Worksheet. Can someone give me the program to find my password? B.

Crosstab report 10-10-07
The problem is, none of the fields are available for me me to select to create the report ... it's blank. When I try to create a report using design view, the pop-up box for parameter I set keeps coming up everytime I try to move a field onto the report. The Crosstab query has parameters set up for the Start Date and End Date, I read that you have to set up column headings, does this mean that I have to type 1/1/2007, 1/2/2007, .........until I reach 12/31/2007? I want the dates to be column headings, the parameter would only be for 15 days, start: 01/01/2007 end:01/15/2007. W...

&#10; with XmlAttribute.InnerText
Hi, I'm trying to generate XML attribute text that contains the string "&#10;". I need that exact as shown. Unfortunately '&' is expandet to '&amp;'. Any idea how to generate the required content? (BTW: This sequence is used by Excel-XML (SpreadsheetML) to mark a line feed in a cell and I am generating an Excel XML-Document. So I suppose it to be valid XML or should Microsoft really use not wellformed XML?) I have tried to use a '\n' but that also doesn't work. Any help highly appreciated! Thx. hd ...

How do I make 11.800 convert to 800 as a number not text
I want to drop the 11. and have the cell next to it be 800. I want to then be able to use that 800 and add other numbers to it. I am having two problems, 1) the 11.800 always becomes 11.8 ( I have tried increasing the decimals) and 2) if I have a different number like for example 11.255 by using RIGHT I succeed in getting 255 but as text. Please help. Thank you all in advance --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ Nave, =MOD(A2, 1) * 1000 will give you the 800 from 11.8 -- Earl Kiosterud mvpearl omitthisword at verizon period net -----------------------------------------...

How do logicals be added or multiplied?
Hello The following does work, but how is the question. =SUMPRODUCT((range_a < c3)*(range_b>=c9)) When input individually i.e. =(range_a<c3) produces either TRUE or FALSE and same thing for =(range_b>=c9). But as a whole it does produce values like 1,2 ... What is happening? Any ideas? Thanks Because the the formula is saying when using an * How many times is this event TRUE... So in your formula it just counts up the number of times range_a is less then c3 and range b> c9 So since it's just referring to one combination, if both values are true... it will add it up...

Number of Observations
I have a column (say Column A) with 300 values (basically it is a DDE link with data I update). I also have a cell I would like to use (say B1). In cell B1 I would like to be able to enter a value (say 20) where I will be able to use this value in another cell to "observe" the top 20 of the cell from column A. So, If I put 20 in cell B1, in cell (say C1) I would like to put some formula where it can reference the "how many observation" cell B1, and say sum A1:AXX where xx is the value in cell B1. I know in this form it cannot be done, but was wondering if someone ...

How can you identify folders, using folder numbers?
Hi everybody, I've searched and searched and asked in the quasi-defunct yahoo exchange newsgroup, but I've never found an answer as to how I can actually utilize the folder identification information contained in Exchange error log events. An example is as such: Event: 1173 Source: MSExchangeIS Mailbox Store Description: Error 0x6bb deleting unused restricted view from folder 1-1A42FF on database "First Storage Group\SG1 Mailbox1". It would be insanely useful if I could tell which folder 1-1A42FF is, so I can narrow down where the problem is occurring, you know?? Anyone...

Email tracking 12-23-05
It seems that there are a number of issues with having the CRM: xxxxxxx in the subject of the CRM emails: 1) Many servers reject these emails as spam 2) It confuses the hell out of my customers To that end I have disabled email tracking.

Trying to calculate the number of packets transferred in a 15 minute session
OK, this should be really easy, but the number I'm coming up with seems way too high. Rather than bias anything by showing my (presumably) incorrect Excel formula, let me just say this: If 30kb is transferred in 1 second, how many Megabytes are transferred in 15 minutes? The number I'm coming up with is 27 Gigabytes but that can't be right. TIA, Robert There are 900 seconds in 15 minutes, so you can transfer 900 x 30 kb in that time, i.e 27000 kb, or 27 Mb (not Gb).

Problem formatting data in text fields in Access Report
Hi, I'm working on making a custom report in Access and am having trouble formatting some numbers that are in text fields. The report was started with the report creating wizard and modified to meet customer requirements. Access used text fields to sum a few of the fields (i.e. Jan 07), but it won't let me decrease the decimals (the data looks like 155.5, but it should say 156). If you go into properties for the text field and go to the format tab, then select 0 decimal places, decimals still show up. What could be wrong? Thanks, Dave DaveA wrote: >I'm working on ...

Option Buttons #10
