Very annoying behaviour of Excel 2003Each time I am opening Excel, it is installing some component. This takes
several minutes, and becomes very annoying.
I recently had to reinstall XP and Office from the distribution CDs. I have
the problem since then. It certainly has something to do with the install.
Does anyone on this forum ever experienced such a behaviour.
I am running Office 2003 on XP SP3.
have you tried doing a repair in the help menu?

Go into the Tools Menu. Look for AutoCorrect. In the bottom half of the

Setting series values on Excel ChartHi
I'm struggling very hard in getting beyond this error when trying to use VB to generate a chart from data previously inserted into the sheet.
Unable to set the Values property of the Series class.
The code works absolutely fine in XL2007 but I am having to port it back to 2003 and the inference is that its empty values that cause it to hiccup - something I cannot avoid.
My code is:
1. Retrieve selected data from database and place it at the top of the sheet
2. Add The Chart
3. Iterate through the data (amount can be variable depending upon user inputs)

Excel template that lists each month's meetings w/ some detailI'm looking for an Excel template that lists every month of the year with

I've got a formula for stones and poundsHello,
I've got a column that displays a series of weights in stones & pounds (both
in the one cell). How do I get a chart to recognise and display in the same
format?
Regards,

What is the format of the cells with stone & pounds
It is best to enter such values a 10 3/14 and format the cells with # ??/14
best wishes from one who is INT(275,14) stone & MOD(250,14) lbs

Printing Multiple Copies #4Hi all - I am using Vista Business and Publisher 2007 from the Office 2007
Small Business package.
No matter what type of publication or template I use I can only print single
copies. Most recently I tried to print 30 copies of a single page flyer and
had to do it a single copy at a time.
If I go to File|Print and set the number of copies to 30, I still get a
single copy only.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

again and the macro works. i only have to do this when i am actively

run it as much as i want, but if i run with break points it crashes a lot
because of multiple excel.exe loaded into memory. perhaps there is a way i
can force excel to only load one excel.exe?

The other (M2) has "Western European ISO" with no automatic
