Outlook exiting box hangs forever
Hello, Running Outlook 2000 on exchange 2000. If the outlook is open for couple days and when i close it, exiting box hangs forever. But, if I open and close outlook right away or within couple hours, it exits fine. Any ideas? kirit Do you have it set to synch offline folders? If yes, and you have received a lot of mail and only have it set to sync on shutdown, it will, of course, take more time after a couple of days worth of items need to be synched. --� Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Re-run Forestprep on Exchange2003?
I'm experiencing a problem with creating Address Books, exactly as outlined in KB875300. The stated solution is to re-run Forestprep. Is there any prep work I need to do for this, and should I expect any problems afterwards? We are a mixed mode 2003 single forest with 3 domains. We have 2 E2K3 and one 5.5 server running. Dan The standard rules apply. Make sure you have a recent backup of AD. Other than that you should not expect any problems.

Problem with "Search box" in Help window
We are using Excel 2003 on XP. This problem is occuring for all users. When you click Help-Microsoft Excel Help, and try to type in the Search for: box under Assistance, the text is inserted into the spreadsheet instead.

chkdsk
Server 2003 with a 4 drive RAID (500 Gb each drive).

Selecting a large range of cells?
I'm not too strong with Excel so this might be an easy question. I have a large workbook with about 50K rows and about 100 columns. I need to sort this large range of data by different columns from time to time. I know how to sort it by just holding down the left mouse button and dragging the highlighted area to include the range. Then I go to "data" / "Sort". This just takes way too long to do each time for a range this size. I hope there is a better way to include this large range without having to "grab" it all manually. Is there? THANKS. Type ...

Quick Campaign Notes do not list in the contact directly
Hi, I have no glue if I do make something wrong or this is by design: When I make notes to a contact within a quickcampaign this note is not in the history and it is also not in the main notes of the contact.

confused by COLUMN worksheet function
I have seen a worksheet containing the following VLOOKUP formula: =VLOOKUP($C$27,$C$63:$N$82,COLUMN(B1)) This is a lookup table for discount factors, column C listing the discount rates in % starting at C63. What is the purpose/result of using COLUMN(B1)?? It's for copying the formula across and get the lookup index column number to increase, it returns the column number, in this case 2 for column B and copied one cell to the right it will return 3 thus changing the column where vlookup will pick the value from -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "KG" <KG@discussions.microsof...

change display font to actual selected font

Index-Match, with Like or some other Function
I have two lists, one with Stock Symbol and Sector (Column A and B), the other with Stock Symbol and Price (Column D & E).

The logic is, the first part of the symbol, up to the period, will be the same. For instance, EL.400 and EL.500 are in the same sector and EL.N, EL.400, and EL.500 are all in the same sector.
