Color box unavailable on Patterns tab in "format data series"
I have a user who is working with some charts and can not edit the color box (is grayed out) on the patterns tab in “format data series”. We feel it is a user setting or something because a different user can pull in the same spreadsheet and edit the color of a graph bar just fine… Has anyone encountered this? Any suggestions? ...

How do Load at Run Time DLL's work?
In the example of dll's loaded at runtime they use LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress. The LoadLibrary works for me, but the GetProcAddress doesn't. Well it did for a short time yesterday for no apparant reason, then it quit and wont work today. Anyway, when it was working, the parameter wasn't passed correctly to the dll function. So how does the compiler know what the parameter list is for the dll function? I don't have an h file included or anything to tell the calling program what the parameters can be. Here some some code from the dll In MEP.h class CMEPApp : public CWinApp...

how do I copy several lines of word text into one excel cell?
In a word doc I need to copy several lines of text and paste them into one excel cell. I can't seem to find any help telling me how to do this (each line pastes into a different cell) You can either double click the cell or press F2 key to get into edit mode for the cell, then the text pasted would all go into the cell. -Simon "jhh" wrote: > In a word doc I need to copy several lines of text and paste them into one > excel cell.

text box filter by form
For some reason that I just can't explain, a text box on a form associated with a single primary key field behaves unexpectedly when I do a filter-by-form. Instead of listing all of the records from the source table as choices in combo box mode, I only see "Is Null" and "Is Not Null" as choices. I have an older form from another database that behaves as I hoped this one would, yet there seems to be no property differences between the two text boxes. Can anybody explain what I'm missing please? Having "Is Null" and "Is Not Null" as filt...

Combining two fields into one in a query for a report
The database I am working on is to keep track of parts that are either in their storage area (on a shelf) or on an assembly line. I have two fields, one called Shelf and every part has a shelf assigned to it. The other field is Line and if a part in on an assembly line, there is a number indicating that line, if the part is on it's shelf, the word STOCK appears in the line field. (Has to be this way for the rest of the database to work, so this is not up for question) Now, I need to creat a report to show where all parts are. If they are on a line the result needs to show the l...

Text to Columns 05-28-10
I have a column with the following data: A RUT 212874790014 Each cell has the word RUT, and the number changes, altough it always has 12 digits. I need to have the word in one cell and the number in another, so I use the text to column option. But when I finish doing this the result is: A B RUT 21,2875E+11 How can I avoid this, so as to keep displaying the whole original number in the cell? Thanks in advance. Regards, Emece.- After performing the text to columns, format the number column as 'number' zero decimal points. "Emece&quo...

text recognition difference b/w commercial and non-commercial?
I have OneNotes 2007 installed at work on Windows 7 and text recognition works. I have it installed at home (non-commercial) on Windows 7 and I do not get text recognition. Both are SP2.

Using Access 2003 Run-Time Version
I am trying to use the Access 2003 run-time and almost everything seems to be working just fine. I have noticed however that I seemed to have lost the ability to right click on a report and bring up the options of print/email.... When I right click using the run-time versionm nothing displays (as if the right button is disabled). When I right click using the regular mdb (full access 2003) all the options appear and I am able to print/email/etc at this time. My main question is is there any way to get the right click options back in a run-time version. Thanks That's correct: the run...

Tabs not visible for one user
I have a worksheet with 12 tabs that is stored on a shared drive, this is accessed by several users. One user is not able to see the tabs across the bottom. She is at a different location than all other users, so we can't physically see this on her PC. All other users can see the tabs when accessing on the shared drive, and when opening an emailed copy. We have had her maximize, etc. and still no tabs. Any suggestions on what I can tell her. I might be missing something simple. I have tried to recreate the problem on a local copy, but can not. Thanks Have you checked the obvious...

converting to UNICODE, _TCHAR and TCHAR, writing text files
Hi, i'm converting a MFC application to support unicode. I have some (probably noob) questions: - What is the difference between the types _TCHAR and TCHAR ? I see some UNICODE applications use _TCHAR and others TCHAR. - I have to convert the way textfiles are written. These text-files are send to machines using parallel port, so they have to stay the same as before (when my application had no _UNICODE preprocessor definition). The commands that are used to write these files are fputs, fopen, etc. When changing it to support wide characters are the textfiles still the same? example (_U...

Setting Value Of One Cell Equal To Value Of Selected Cell
Without using VBA - If cell A1=red, A2=white and A3=blue, can I set C1 to be the value of the selected cell so that if A1 is selected, C1 will equal red, if A2 is selected, C1 will equal white, etc.? Thanks, Sheldon Potolsky Sheldon, In a word, no. No worksheet thing comes to mind that works as a function of the active cell. You might want to use some radio buttons or a list box (Forms Toobar or Control Toolbox) instead of cell selection. They'll let you click to make such choices, and you can use formulas that will change a cell value as you wish. -- Regards from Virginia Beach, ...

RPC/HTTP works BUT not from everywhere This is a strange one
Hello everyone. I am in a bit of a bind here and am under about a 12 hour timeline window. I have Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2003 Clients using RPC/HTTP in a singe server configuration. Remote staff and satelite offices are all using this and it works GREAT. HOWEVER, my office in Winnipeg, Man. CAN, does not work at all. In fact if I use a laptop from outside the office network and connect wirelessly through anyones Internet connection it does NOT work. If I take the same laptop back to BC with me or the CONGO for that matter it works. Very frustrating...anyone seen this before or ...

Date/Time Output Discrepancy
I've used two ways to get the {!Case.Created On} field but the outcomes were different.

Workflow by default will give you a fully formated date time string. To get the required result. you will have to create a small .net assembly that takes in the datatime parameter and retu...

Converting text to uppercase
This is Excel 2000. Cell C2 in a worksheet called 'NOTES' contains '34 West Street, somewhere-in-England' =UPPER ( NOTES!C2 ) is supposed to produce ' 34 WEST STREET, SOMEWHERE-IN-ENGLAND' In fact it gives: #NAME?

Track Changes in 2007 deleting large portions of text
We have a document where 3 team members are making updates in revision marks. We are not updating at the same time. For some reason, huge chunks of text are getting deleted that were never actually deleted by any of us. It has happened to all 3 of us after we worked in the document. It is now the third or fourth time that I have had to go back and reject the changes for the sections deleted, and yes it does show my name or one of the other uses in the name of the person who made the changes. I can go in, reject all of the deleted sections, save the document, get out and get b...
