formatting dates by year #2
I would like to know if there is a way to format dates so that they are formatted by year only. For example, if I click on Format -> Cells, there are a bunch of options, but none of them list to show the year only, just mm/dd/yy or mm/yy, etc. I am trying to create a chart so that only the year shows up. Also, I have tried doing Custom->and "yyyy" in type, but only 1 specific year shows up (i.e. 1905) for all the values. I would like to keep my values. Thanks much! ...

File size #11
I have read the other discussions on file sizes but they do not seem to address my problem. I have an Excel file that is 12mb large with low-res jpegs in it. This file also has merged cells to make it look pretty. Does Excel look at these merged cells as graphics? Is this why they are too big? I have run a macro to make sure that it goes to the last cell. How can I get the file smaller? How big are the graphics? If you remove them from the file, what is the size of the file and what is the size of the graphic files? To be sure you do not have extra formatting, if you open the file...

Using Relative path for XML data file?
Is there a way to specify a relative path to an XML data file imported into Excel 2003? I am writing a web app that generates report data as XML for the user to download to their local machine. This data is to be consumed by an Excel reporting spreadsheet, which contains display-formatted tables and charts that are mapped to various data fields in an XML Map, which is in turn linked to the xml data file they will download. The idea is the user only needs to download the data for updates, not the whole spreadsheet. However, since I cannot predict the path where the user will store their...

Excel button problem
Hi All I have a macro that copies a worksheet in the active workbook and puts it into a new workbook - then formats it and deletes any buttons on the worksheet.

Book 1 doesn't exists (wasn't opened, wasn't saved, doesn't have the macros). I've never experienced this problem before?? Can anyone help to solve this problem? FYI The macro to do this is c...

Linking files 2 ways
I have a work book that is linked to another and vise versa. As thus: Workbook A is where the input of data is made; Workbook B has a link to the input from workbook A; Workbook A retrieves the altered data back as a link. Although this all works fine with both books open, I note that if I open workbook A by itself, that the data it retrieves from Workbook B is not updated . If However, both books are open, there's no problem. I thought linked books were updated automatically if the Update remote references has been selected?? But it appears that the second book is not updated until it ...

OL2007 not move big files from outbox to sent
Hi, We have 2 computers with separate email accounts on Roadrunner. One machine has XP with Outlook 2002-sp3 and works without any problems. The other has Outlook 2007 on Vista and has problems sending files over a meg or so in size. It seems to actually send the file but the file remains in the outbox folder and does not move it to the sent folder. I say it "seems" to send the file because some people complain of getting muliple copies and others don't seem to get them at all. If I hit send again (not set up for auto send) it seems to send the file again (why some ...
