Hi
You could use a formula like this ...
Excel 2003 extract repeating cellsI have successfully sorted my data to show repeating entries in
relation to two specific columns. I can't seem to figure out how to
select these repeating entries (without doing it manually, of course)
and putting them either into their own column(s) or an entirely
different spreadsheet altogether.
The goal is to save time in managing THOUSANDS of documents in this
manner so that my colleagues can easily pick up repeating entries and
take according action. Doing it manually is very time-inefficient.
Nit Wit,
You don't really describe enough of your layout or what you actually mean...
Exporting file names to an excel spreadsheet.
I have a folder containing many many many .pdf files.
Is there a way to export the filenames of these .pdf files into an
excel spreadsheet?
If this is a dumb question, I apologize. I didnt have any luck
searching for the answer here.

Print area is set, print preview displays selection, always on far left of

Help please.
Hi,
To get your printout to center on the page chose Page Layout, click the
Page Setup quick launch button (bottom right corner of the Page Setup group).
Choose the Margins tab, click Horizontal.
There is no command to right align a printout, but you can change the left
margin to force the printout to the left.

chart label reference based on the column numberIn a worksheet with an embedded chart, I have a cell, S4, where I enter the
number of the column I want to chart (these numbers are listed as labels in
cells A2:R2).
I can't figure out how to translate the number in S4 into the corresponding
column letter. For example, if S4 contains "3", the chart title should be
=$C$2.
I think working with absolute references, R1C1, might be easier here, but
somehow what I've tried, didn't work (the entire spreadsheet is based on
relative addresses (A1).

cell looses name after sortingCan someone help me with the following problem in Excel 2000:
in a table I have attached serveral cells with unique cell names, the
values in these cells are used in other sheets.
the problem is that when I sort the table, the cell names stay in the
original rowposition; they are not sorted! while their values are. So
Cell names get different values, and other calculations on my other
sheets get messed up!
How can I make the cell names relative instead of absolute?
thankx in advance,
Jim

preview text disappears when email is openedWhen someone responds to an my email, I can see what they have typed - until
I open the message - then only my original message is viewable. The preview
pane shows new message text when email arrives, hoever when the email is
opened the preview text disappears - and I just see the earlier part of the
message which I had sent.
If I mark it as unread it does not return to the previous state.
This seems to happen on email responses that people have received and
answered from a webmail service not that they downloaded and opened in

You need to create a two-page master rather than a one-page master. What
version of Publisher are you running?

How can I wrap text across merged cells?I'm using Excel 2000. I have a set of merged cells A5-
E5. I have several lines
of text in the cells and I want them to wrap across the
merged cells and it is not working. All I get is the
first line of text showing and the rest is cut off. It
works if the cells are not merged, but I really need to do
it in my merged cells. Is there a way to this other than
manually resizing the height of the row?
Instead of merging cells, have you tried the "Center Across Selection"
option ?
The appearence is just about identical to what you would get using merged

z-order of various lines and bars in an Excel 2007 chartWhat is the procedure for changing the z-order of various lines and

I observed that when I add drop lines to an Excel 2007 chart, they
appear in front of the underlying data -- in my case, the underlying
data is displayed as a plotted area. I want the plotted area to be
fully visible with no lines over it.
I would like to send the drop lines to the back and keep the plotted
area in the front, but there is no option to do this.
So, is there a procedure for adjusting the z-order of drop...

New Named Range Created Each Time Data Imported into Excel via MacroI have noticed that each time I import data into an Excel spreadsheet
via a macro, a new named range (for the same range) is created. This
does not pose a problem, but after a while, I'll have a huge number of
named ranges that will never be used. Why does Excel name the range
and how can I stop this? I noticed in the recorded macro, there was a
line .Name = "drd_5". I commented this out to see what would happen,
but it just renamed the range "ExternalData_5". The next one was
"ExternalData_6", etc.

Import excel named range into Access error 3011Hi, I've read a few posts on this topic, but none addresses my

I use Office 2003 on an XP SP3 machine.
I am using transferspreadsheet to import a named range in an excel file

This has worked beautifully until suddenly it stopped working.
I find now that if I extract the address of the named range from within
the Access VBA code,
it looks like this:

rather than this, which is what it should be:
=Data!$A$1:$Z$166
When I open the spreadsheet and get the address of the named range in
the immediate window,
it also has the #REF error....
