Help: Formula put into entire row creates large file sizeHi,
I have a spreadsheet where I would like one column to be the
concatenation of two other columns.
For example, in column C I would have =A1&B1.
This excel file will be given to people and they will fill in values
into columns A and B. The trick is, I don't know how many rows there
will be, so I don't know how many rows in column C should have this
formula.
If I paste this formula into the entire column C, the excel file blows
up to 3 megabytes. (It's only 15KB without this column).
Are there ways for me to accomplish this more efficiently?
Thanks for any help

How do I print multiple records to one publication page?I want to merge records from a data source in access to publisher. I want 4
different records per page in postcard format. Each time I use the catalog
merge feature it prints 1 record 4 times on the page. How can I fix this?
You need to have one card on your screen for the merge to work. (Print preview will
show the same entry on all four cards, its a bug).

Querying MS Access from C# on stored file pathsHi folks,
I'm storing some particulars about file usage in my MS Access
database, incl. the full paths of those files. I tried to query the
database in my C# code. My idea was to retrieve from the database by
means of SQL when a file was used the last time, but I only know the
directory it is in, so in my code I tried to construct a WHERE clause
as follows: String whereClause = "WHERE Filename LIKE '" + dirpath +
"*'";
Of course I'm working on Windows and I don't want to think of
portability now. Obviously, the variable dirpath contains double...
helpI have some texts files, which i want to read in each line, and then
write back each line to a new text file.
So for example, I want to read in the 2 lines below:

"",0,0,0,318.592,83.04552
I store each line of data in the following vector:
std::vector<CString> FileData;
So FileData[0] =3D ""C:\Data\=D3=EA=D2=B9=D0=C7=BF=D5",6,10,3,3,8"
FileData[1] =3D """,0,0,0,318.592,83.04552"

Ordering by number and textI use a report to print out checklists that in the detail section have item

1-1, 1-2, 1-2a, 1-2b, or 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-3a, 2-3b and so on. The report is
grouped by checklist section and the grouping works perfectly but when the
report is printed the item numbers are ordered in this order 1-1, 1-10, 1-11,
1-2, 1-3, 1-3a, 1-3b, 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, 1-7, 1-9.
Obviously I want the the order to be in proper numerical sequence where 1-10
comes after 1-9. but even replacing the '-' with a decimal point doesn't

PST IMport problemI am having problems importing data from a pst backup file. I have
successfully imported outlook folders from it recently, however when I
attempt to import more now, the files are not coming into my current
tree, but a new personal folder is created with nothing in it.
The PST file in question has a filesize of over 600Mb !
Any Help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
For starters, importing and exporting are not recommended for PST files.
You've demonstrated one of the reasons. Just open the file.

Time Format to Text OutputHi
I run Excel 2K
I have a series of times that I download from the mainframe. (these are in a

EXAMPLE

22/09/2009 9:22:00 PM
22/09/2009 7:40:00 PM
etc etc
I am in need of a formula that looks at these times, and based on their
values, displays a particular piece of text. (in this case "DAY", "AFT",
"NIGHT")
Example
Any time between the following:
7:20:00 AM to 3:19:00 PM should display the word DAY
Any time between the following:
3:20:00 PM to 11:19:00PM should display the word AFT

What's the name of the file that stores AutoComplete addressesMy Outlook had to be re-installed and I lost my contact list which is very

Autocomplete cache is an NK2 file, named for your profile, often
outlook.nk2.
Paste the following line in the address bar of windows explorer;
%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
and it will open to the folder where its stored.

Opening Text Files and Re-Saving ThemHi.

excel files.
I have sorted out the code to enable the user to select the folder they wish
to use, but am looking some assistance on the looping to enable each of the
text files to be opened and re-saved.
Can anyone suggest how I might do this.
Thanks.

Importing marketing list as campaign responsesHi there guys and thanks in advance for any light you might shed on this

I created a .csv file from an excel sheet and I want to import this into CRM
as campaign responses. When I try to do so, and after mapping all fields from
the file to correspondent fields in CRM, it just doesn't import anything.
It seems like it is going to import, but then, just doesn't do nothing. And
of course, nothing shows as campaign responses.
If I import the .csv file as leads, it works, so I guess the import file is
not corrupted or has any bad data.
Anyone knows what the problem might be?

Make a pie chart, not as a separate chart sheet, but located on a
worksheet (a blank one, if you like). Make another and position it on
the worksheet next to the first. Etc.

Is there a way I can limit the amount of Text I can enter into th

would save me a lot of time if I were able to lock the cells in m

Is this doable
