How do I use a "subtract" function in Excel?
Hi Kelly
if you want to subtract the value in B1 from the value in A1 and have the
answer display in C1 then in C1 type
=A1-B1
Hope this helps
Cheers

Word 2010 beta: Cannot save my Normal.dotm fileUsing the Word 2010 beta on Win7. I cannot save my Normal.dotm file - at
least not usefully. I can open the file, edit it, add macros to it, whatever,
and it will save (in the folder directory, the .dotm file will show a change
in file size). But when I close Word, or if I open a new document in Word, the
Normal.dotm file is reset to the default, losing any changes I've made.
I can save and use other .dotm templates; but not the default Normal.dotm
template.

That means exactly what it says: At index 63 XML parser found a byte, which is
invalid either according document's encoding or is forbidden in XML documents

Excel not AccessI have designed an Access database that holds records relating to my stores
audit results going back for about 5 years plus a load more information
relating to these stores. This was used to produe a pack once a month,
however a change in senior management means that I have got to shelve this
and prodce a similar pack in Excel.
The idea would be that the user could select a month or a 12 mnth date range
that would produce data that could then be used to populate a number of excel
templates that have been designed. Having not used excel for years I would be

Auto-format in Microsoft Excel.Each time i try to enter a number range, for example, 8-
10, in Excel, it constantly re-formats it to a date. If I
change the formatting to "General" it turns it into a
random number, usually 38209. I would like to turn off
ALL auto-formatting, but that's probably asking too
much. How do I disable this frustrating feature?
thanks.
Hi Paul
When you enter "8-10" in a cell, that's not strictly a number but Excel
thinks you mean a date so converts it as such.
A date is a number and in your example the number 38209 represents August 10
2004 which is not a ra...

I get the toolbar but the actual spreadsheet doesn't

If I already have Excel active and I open a file through

Any ideas?

Unexpected error message on closing an Excel fileSuddenly I am getting the following message when I try to close a workbook:
"Your formula contains an invalid external reference to a worksheet.
Verify that the path, workbook, and range name or cell reference are
correct, and try again"
The mysterious thing is that it does not happen consistently and that, after
I click OK after the above message, I can still save the file.
What might be the cause of this error message and can the "invalid
reference" be tracked down using one of the utility add-ins such as J.
Walkenbach's PUP?
If it only happens when you close ...
Where is the workspace file stored?I was given a project folder containing several dozen files. So where

I haven't used VC6 for some time, but if I remember right you can just open
the .dsp file and it will create a .dsw file for you. It typically goes in
the same folder with the code.

Linker Error after upgrade from VC7.1Hello all,
After upgrading a VC7.1 project to visual studio 2005, it failed to build in
the release configuration with the follwoing error :
1>nafxcw.lib(winocc.obj) : error LNK2005: "public: class CWnd * __thiscall
CWnd::GetDlgItem(int)const " (?GetDlgItem@CWnd@@QBEPAV1@H@Z) already defined
in InstallDlg.obj
The debug build works fine.
The project uses MFC in a static library.
Well, after doing some research, it seems that this one is tied to the fact
that in a release configuration, _AFX_ENABLE_INLINES is defined, so inline
functions are embedded in the .obj file.
Sure there...
