Setting series values on Excel Chart
Hi 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) For j as i...

How can I choose alternate rows in a column?
My requirement is to be able to create a column whose elements consist of difference between adjacent elements in a column, say column A. If I can choose alternate elements and create 2 new columns then I can just subtract the 2 columns easily. Huh?

Cells Fill Automatically on Another Workbook
I've created what we'll call a seed worksheet to be used over and over for different clients. I have linked its cells to another workbook. As the originating seed worksheet directs its cell data to a specific cell on another workbook, how can I accomplish the workbook data not being overwritten but the new incoming data default to the next unused cell in the column? i.e. If the original seed worksheet cell B1 links to the worksheet cell A1, I would like the next instance of creating a new customer and his B1 information on his use of the seed worksheet to populate onto th...

hide/change color of selected row headings
Is it possible to hide the row heading numbers for selected rows (i.e. rows 51 and greater) for just the selected sheet? I'd like to have a color with no row heading number appear that matches the fill color I select for the adjacent cells. Secondly, any ideas as to how I can prevent the user from scolling further down than a certain point (i.e. row 51). Thanks in advance. Joe Row headings are either on or off, you can't hide some. However, you can achieve a similar effect by hiding *all* headings (Tools/Options/General) and putting the numbers 1:51 in A1:A51. to limit scro...

When I enter data into the last row of Sheet 1, I need the data in that row in columns A, B, C and D to be copied into Sheet 2 columns A, C, D and E in a newly inserted row 14.

Copy cell contents, then paste into the same cell with other text.

My spreadsheet has a column for shipping that takes a series like this for each product: ?0.0*0.13.2*d*0x0x0:07:24:04 Following the question mark is the handling charge (0.0 in this example). This is followed by an * and then the weight of the item (0.13.2 in this example which is 13.2 ounces) I have a list of product weights in a colum with just pounds and ounces.

How do I call individual cell data from an Excel sheet into Powerpoint or Word?

For instance in the midst of the graphics and flyer text that will remain the same for every flyer I'd like to be able to tell it to refer to Excel document, and then pull all the information for say, the company in row 7 (since 7 is the first company listed) It would need to pull the text (co. name) from A7, sug. r...

If the above is the case, in EXCEL 2007, try the following:- - click in the cell to the left of column A and above row 1 - this will highlight the whole Worksheet - then double click the line between the A and the B column headings The above wi...

Opening multiple workbooks through code and copying values

Can I use sp w/ parameter as row source for a combo box?
I have a working stored proc that takes one parameter and gives me exactly what I need for populating a combo box. The stored proc does sums on the results of a UNION query with 3 very distinct components - the only variable is a 'region_id' parameter. Is there a way to reference the sp as the combo box source and pass in the parameter? I have no problem with tweaking the cbo's properties at run time. If not, then I guess I could define the view to do the summing with the region as one of the GROUP BY's and then in the front end write SQL to only grab the summed ...
