How do I separate address information from within an Excel cell?I have a Christmas Card list that was created using a single cell for the
whole address. Street, City, Zip/Postal etc. I need to split those
components out into separate cells in order to do a proper mail merge. Is
there any way to do this. I am not completely unfamiliar with macros but I
if that is the solution I would require a fair bit of hand holding.
Thanks
S.
If you actually used commas to separate the fields (and none of the fields
contain commas), you could select the column and do:
Data|text to columns
delimited
comma
Remember to keep enough open columns to the right s...
Counting empty cells within a range of cells #2A sheet can have a variable range of adjacent cells each containing
the value =1
The range defines the perimeter of, or surrounds a group of empty
cells however outside the perimeter, the remaining cells on the sheet
are empty as well.
The task is to count the empty cells that are surrounded by the
perimeter of 1�s:
To do this manually, I use the @countif (range=0) function however it
requires that I go into the worksheet and select the range manually.
I would like to do this by formula or macro.
The knowns are:
1) The location of the start/end cell of the range
2) That the next cell in ...
Will un- & reinstalling Outlook'03 delete email & addresses?I've been plagued with an Outlook problem for about a month. Settings are
right. Test email works fine. All other internet related programs are fine.
But Outlook gives me a "send/receive error" message as fast as I can hit
"Send/Receive". If I keep it open just to check contacts or calendar it
always crashes within 10 to 60 minutes. If I start it in safe mode it seems
to work all right. I reinstalled and it worked for 30 minutes and then did
the same thing.
If I Uninstall first, and then Reinstall, will it help? Will I lose my
contacts and emails?

Outlook 2003 won't let me delete msg in OutboxI have an email in my outbox that has a 6 MB attachment.
Well, for whatever reason, Outlook was having issues
sending the email, so after several hours, I decided to
delete it. Pressing the delete button does nothing, no
error. Trying to permenantly delete it (shift delete)
and it gives me the error message "The item could not be
deleted. It was either moved or already deleted, or
access was denied."
It's a bizarre error. I'm only using Outlook as a pop3
email reader. There's no exchange on the backend. This
is with Windows XP Professional. Any help woul...
New mail appearing as old deleted itemWhen new mail arrives in inbox an old long deleted item appears in place of

This problem also used to happen in Windows Mail so I bought Outlook 2007
but it still happens intermittantly.

excel printing #8how can I print
pictures in excel sheet properly as it is getting printed thrice whereas
it shows once in the print preview.
I've never seen xl do this--but I don't print too many pictures using xl.
But after verifying that the pictures are indeed correct (there aren't
triplicates), I'd look at the printer driver.
Do you have another printer you can try?
If it works on that other printer, I'd visit the printer's web site and look for
a new (or fresher) copy of the driver.
(But this is just something to try!)

Merge Cells I can't findI was trying to hide a column, and got a message that I couldn't, because
cells in another column were involved. I don't see those cells, and "merge"

This quick macro will remove all merges on the current sheet:
Sub RemoveMerges()
Cells.UnMerge
End Sub
You can, of course define a range instead.

Deleting Records based on criterionI know about advanced filters and filtering out records

only way.

After you do your Autofilter (or in-place Advanced Filter) only the rows to

column) and do an Edit, Delete Row. Click Ok to the confirming prompt.
Only the visible rows will be deleted (Excel is pretty smart<g>) just as y...

in Sheet1!A1 and depending on sheet name, takes the
value of A1 of that sheet.
Ofcourse it is wrong, but, something like this [Sheet1!A1]![A1]

Wrap text in cellIt seems that wrap text and autofit row width and row height have a limit.
Any idea where to change this limit?
I have quite a large text in a cell and when I do wrap text and autofit,
then parts of the text get cut of. The text is still there, but it is not
shown in the cell and it is cut off when printing.
You can enter 32767 characters in a cell.
In Excel 2003 and earlier, only 1024 of these will be visible or printed.
I believe Excel 2007 will show 8192 characters.
If you add an Alt + Enter linefeed every 100 or so characters you can
increase this 1024 limit.

deleting a calendar series needs new optionWhen you have a series for a meeting appointment and after a year there
is no longer a meeting your first impulse is to delete the meeting
series from your calender.
When you do this it deletes all past, present and future occurrances of
the appointment.
It would be really nice if the delete had an option to say from here
forward so you can preserve history in the calender.
