Address Book Column Sequence
Every since I downloaded upgrade to Office XP my email address book is listed Name Display Name Address And I want "Display Name" first because it is last name first unlike the "Name" which is first name first. How can I change the columns? You can't change the columns, nor do you need to. Instead change the sort order of the Address Book. Go to Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or address books > Outlook Address Book > Change. > Set your sort order there -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "dma...

Currently I'm using dual monitors that attached to one computer but located in different rooms. Is it make any sense?... I've already knew how to remote one object from another in one same ap...

How do I automatiicaly redefinie Source data range for a chart?
I have A Chart Defined by Category (X) values in Collumn B and Y values in Collumn C. Right now Both are defined by rows 4 to 114. I would like to be able to have the chart automatically redefine itself so if I put a value in C115 the chart would automaticaly set Y value range to be C4:C115 eithout having to manually define chart. Is this possible? If so how? I've tried OFFSET bu so far no luck. Hi, If you turn your data cells into a List, or Table in xl2007, the chart will auto expand. The named range approach will work if you set up the names correctly. See here for more info...

Pasting excel chart into powerpoint
Office 2003. When I paste an excel chart into powerpoint, it's not pasting proportionally. I've added text boxes to the chart (in Excel). Also, the original chart is a full page in Excel, however when I paste it into Powerpoint, it's being reduced in size. when I enlarge it, the text boxes (that I added) then overlap one another in powerpoint, where they didn't do this in Excel. I just switched from '97 to 2003 and this wasn't a problem. Perhaps I'll also post this to the powerpoint newsgroup, in case the problem is there instead of excel. I have so...

column totals on stacked column chart
Hi. Is there a good way to get the column totals on a stacked column chart to appear above the columns? All I have gotten so far is the individual pieces of the column to show their values inside of the column, but the user wants the column total, above the column. Thanks. Mark Hi, Assuming your chart is a 2d stacked column you could use dummy data series plotted on the secondary axis to display the total. Create yourself a helper column on your worksheet that sums the values of each column. Add this to the chart. At first it will be an extra portion on each stack. Select the serie...

Set color for chart serie in excel 2007/2010
Hi! I want to do a macro that sets the color for the chart series to the color the company has desided to use. We have a theme but we can only set color for the first 6 series and we often use much more series. I have understod that this isnt so easy as to loop thru the series and set the color since the color is set on different ways depending on the charttype for the serie, or is it a way to do this so it works for all chart types? thanks As you say only six basic colours are available. However each subsequent set of six is a shade lighter, although each incremental differe...

97: How can I find duplicate entries in a column?
Hello and thanks in advance for any help. This is a very basic question from an even more basic user. I have a spread sheet with a long list of ID numbers for skips. Sometimes duplicate numbers arise from paper work from elsewhere and I get a false total of skips in hand. How can I organise that column to highlight a duplicate entry please? Shen --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ Insert a helper column: =COUNTIF(A1:A9999,A1) (adjust the range to suit.) then the formulas that evaluate to more than 1 will be duplicated.

Custom Type Charts Problem
I am using Custom Type Charts in Excel, which uses Pivot Table as the Data Source. The problem that I am facing here is that whenever I Refresh the data using the Refresh icon, the Custom Type charts LOOSE their formatting.

using INDIRECT with COLUMN fails.. I know why
I had a huge spreadsheet that I assembled by the end of the summer. at one point, it pulled data from one worksheet to the next using an INDIRECT combined with ROW() now- at the end of the summer, I'm re-writing it- but for display purposes, I find it works better vertically where before it was horizontal. I'm stuck, I know where.. before, my indirect("sheetname!"&$A1&ROW()) worked fine if A1 had a letter so I might get an address of "sheetname!d1" now, my indirect("sheetname!"&colum()&a$1) fails-- as column() returns a number n...

Another question, regard enum { IDD = DIALOGID };
Hope it's okay if I ask another question, I noticed that my dialog lacked an IDD-enum. When you create a new dialog project, say, you get something like the following in the public section of the dialog class header: enum { IDD = IDD_ASIMPLETEST_DIALOG }; I noticed I didn't have one in this old project so I added one but it won't compile because the compiler doesn't see the identifier I'm using, which is due to the fact that Resource.h isn't included in the dialog class header file. But the thing is, it isn't included in my test project either but it compiles...
