Excel won't open #3
About a month ago, I was using Excel, and closed the program in the normal manner and everything was fine. I tried to open the program about an hour later (not sure how - probably by clicking on a spreadsheet, rather than opening the program first), but it froze the computer. It rebooted easily when I Ctl-Alt-Deleted. Every time I tried to open Excel from then on, no matter whether I went through the Office Taskbar, the Start Menu, the Desktop shortcut or clicking on a spreadsheet, the computer froze. I checked the computer for viruses - none detected. I scanned the hard drive - no problems ...

Pictures & Excel
Hi all, Is Excel designed to allow pictures to be 'data' for example a picture as a cell linked to each row of information?

Creating report for Excel data?
I am new to automating Excel in any way. Is it possible to create a report based on a spreadsheet? This spreadsheet contains customer account information and we want to send statements for a range of accounts. I would need to get the range of account numbers from the user in an input box or something and then grab the applicable cells for each of those accounts. The report would be one account to a page and list the customer name and account balances. Would be a snap in Access but is this reasonable to attempt in Excel? Can anyone offer some guidance or web sites that may be of use?...

Word 2007 with Excel linked objects
I have linked objects from Excel in Word 2007 (they are .doc and .xps but converting them to .docx and .xpsx did not fix the problem and required relinking so I didn't pursue it further). The problem is that in preview I see the double underlines on my Excel object but when it prints the underlines sometimes look like a single line or a single line bolded. The appearance is inconsistent across various linked objects from the same Excel workbook (even worksheet). On the Excel side I've tried cell border, text underlines (both double and double accounting) and on the Word s...

open & repair corrupted document
When I open a word 2003 document in 2007 word a window opens. States a table has been corrupted and refers to a down arrow next to "open" to find repair. As a new user of 2007 Office the only "open" command I can find is in the Office Button and no down arrow appears. Can anyone offer help? What you need to do is use the keyboard command Ctrl-O. This will give you the same window you were accustomed to seeing in 2003. The down arrow can be found there. I hope this helps. "John H." wrote: > When I open a word 2003 document in 2007 word...

source data editor in Excel 2007 dont seem to allow copy and past.
The new source data editor dont allow copy and paste of other series data followed by a manual edit to get the correct range of cells. The new editor also dont diplay a preview of the chart. Is there another way to accomplish these atsks in Excel 2007? There's no preview because things are changed on the live chart as you make changes. It's awkward as all get out, but you can in fact copy and paste. You need to select an existing series, click the Edit button, the select and copy the reference in one of the edit boxes. Then clear the small dialog, click add, and paste into the...

Excel
Excel in office 2003 When printing charts that are horizontal we would like to continue our paging scheme but on a vertical mode. The only way to print a page number in excel is in a header or footer. But within the header, how can the number be turned? I had the same question. However, I was not able to figure out any way to do it. So, I just tested the following VBA code to add a WordArt shape to all charts. It rotates the text 90 degrees and places it in the lower left corner. Since it names the shape it is easy to get back to it if need to renumber the pages. I just delete it ...
