New Installation & Update
I just purchased a new iMac I also purchased another copy of office. After office installed, the auto updater loaded the 11.3.9 Then later the auto updater wanted to install 11.3.8. -At this point I did not do this update, but read the update info pages. Each update states that the previous update needs to be installed FIRST, clear back to 11.3.5 So, since the auto updater installed the 11.3.9 version, do I need to actually install the other regressive updates? or was that update all-inclusive. or do I need to uninstall office and reinstall, then manually install the updates because the aut...

Microsoft's new Money 2008 naming scheme
While reading this recent article, it occurred to me that the new "Plus" may refer to what Ray Ozzie terms "software plus services". Here is the link and an excerpt: Microsoft Describes Technology Behind Software Plus Services http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,135159/article.html "This services transformation, from software to software plus services, is a very very big deal for our company," said Ray Ozzie, chief software architect for Microsoft, speaking during his company's annual financial analyst meeting.

Expandlig number of entries in "Move to folder" list
Is there any way to expand the list of "Move to folder" entries beyond the 10 that seem to be programmed into Outlook. Move to folder is a great feature, and since I use it so often, with about 15 - 20 common folders, the limitation of only having 10 entries means that, at any point in time, at least 5 of my common entries are not on the list, and must be selected again, using a browse method. After browsing, they are once again on the list, but some other common folder has now been eliminated. You can use rules to move items to folders that are commonly used for the Mo...

Moving a contact group from Outlook Express 6 to Outlook?
I have a large contact group that is making my Outlook Express address book to cluttered (I use Outlook Express more often than Outlook) and would like to know if there is any easy way to just move it to Outlook without having to retype all the names and addresses? Thanks, Mark No, since Outlook does not use or support groups in the way that OE does. You need to state your Outlook version and tell us whether the members of the OE group also exist in the Contacts folder or only in the group. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Mark B." <somno@earthlink.net> wrote in message ...

copy-paste emails don't work
How can I copy emails from a column in Microsoft Works database to paste them into a new email in Windows Live mails ? When I do this, it requires a ";" at the end of each email which is time consuming to add. How can I solve this problem ? Thank you You mean email addresses. You should be able to do a global search and replace. For example, if the addresses are currently separated by a space character you can replace all occurrences of the space character by '[space][semicolon]'.

Activex control
I have an Activex control which exposes multiple interfaces for example, ISample1 – CSample1 (Coclass) ISample2 – CSample2 (Coclass) I need to add new methods/properties (a new version). Since ISample1 and ISample2 cannot be modified, I’ll have two new interfaces, ISample1Ext ISample2Ext These will be a replication of ISample1 and ISample2, but with new methods/properties added. The old interfaces will be marked deprecated and may be removed in future. The question is, 1. Do I have to copy all the implementation from CSample1 and CSample2 to CSample1Ext and CSample2Ext? 2.

switch colums and rows
Here's my problem...I have a list of bills for workers' comp claimants. Each bill is in a row with a specific service type (occup med center, radiology, surgery, physical therapy). The columns house the claimant name, date of service, a physician name. I need to create a "story" for each claimant showing the number of days between each service transaction (between physician visit and surgery, for example). I was thinking that the best way to do this would be to switch my rows into colums. How would I pull specific rows (I have a column label with the types of service)...

need formula for multiple columns/rows

I'm sure it is simple, I'm just learning. Thanks, kzas Hi Kzas, If I got it right, you want the formula to calculate the sum for al the rows from row 3 up to the row is appears. If so, then the followin should do it: =$c$3-sum($d$3:$q3) -(assuming that there is only one budget figure)- =$c$3-su...

updateing a orginal sheet after two or more have updated copys

How can we configure correctly? so the info we are each entery is update to the orginal? I would say it would be difficult with three of you making changes to three separate copies of the same workbook. Perhaps you should investigate the use of a single Shared workbook. See help on sharing a workbook. Also note the loss of some features when sharing. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 19 Ma...

Why does # of filtered rows appear in status bar only sometimes?
In some files, the # of rows returned from a filter operation appears in the far left corner of status bar, in some files the words "Filter Mode" appears in that spot. In both cases, I have right-clicked on the status bar and chosen "Count". How do I make the # appear, not "Filter Mode"? Excel 2002, SP3. When your list has many formulas, or if a cell in the list is changed after a filter has been applied, the Status Bar may show "Filter Mode" instead of a count of the visible records. You can use the Subtotal function to count the visible rows. ...
