Limiting The Amount of Text
Hi,
Is there a way I can limit the amount of Text I can enter into th
cells of a selected column?
For example, when listing on eBay, the description bar on eBay i
limited to 40 characters. Since I list items on eBay with Excel, i
would save me a lot of time if I were able to lock the cells in m
"Description" column to 40 characters instead of going back an
counting all the characters in those cells.
Is this doable

Scatter graph with text as marker ?How do I replace the data point markers (diamond, star etc.) with
text which is unique for each data point?
Example .. Lets say we have this dataset:
Name: Alfa Beta Gamma
X: 1 2 3
Y: 2 4 8
The goal is to replace the ordinary markers with
the word "Alfa" for the point (1,2), "Beta" for
the point (2,4) and so on... ?
- Dag
How about adding the alfa, beta, etc. as data labels (use Rob Bovey's
XY Chartlabeler available from www.appspro.com). Center the labels and
set the marker to none (double-click the plotted series, then the
Patterns tab).

Text Format in Tables...I have a user that is always putting data into the tables with her caps lock
on. I have told her several times not to. Is there a way to format all the
text in a table to make it sentence case???
First, I am assuming that you aren't allowing a user to enter data directly
into tables. If you are, you might strongly want to consider using a form
for this instead. There are multiple advantages to using forms instead of
directly entering into tables, controlling casing is one of them.
Now; to alter the casing, you might try looking in the Access help file at
the StrConv function...
Remove Drive w/ selection based on associated DOS drive letterI am trying to find a way to call CM_Query_And_Remove_SubTree() or
SetupDiRemoveDevice() on the basis of the associated DOS drive letter. There
seem to be multiple name-spaces for both physical and logical drives. I have
found a number of well-hidden bridges for tying some of them together, but
have been unable to find one that lets me start with the drive letter and
chain down to the ID I need to drive one of the remove functions.
Any Suggestions?

Can a formula be "built" referencing text content from another celHi, and thank you for your help.
I have run across this need many times...is there any way to use to contents
of one cell, to construct a formula in another cell?
Here is my particular requirement. I have worksheets named January,
February, March...etc.
On a separate Summary Worksheet, I reference the same cells on each of those
sheets.
For example, I may have in 3 adjacent cells, =January!A1 =February!A1
=March!A1 and then in the next row:
=January!A7 =February!A7 =March!A7 etc.
It would, obviously, be much easier to "build a f...

Inherit from window form, text box is protected ?Hi,
I have a base form, it has 2 textboxs (textbox1, textbox2).
When I inherit a new form from the base form, all of the textbox controls
appear correctly, however, when I try to add below code on the new form in
order to assign a value to textbox1, e.g.
textbox1.Text = "123";
the compiler said the "textbox1.Text is inaccessible due to its protection
level"
how can I fix it ?
Thanks,
Marcus

CSliderCtrl : Overwriting the tooltip textHello All,
I would like to change the text from the default tooltip of a Slider
control. The default settings show the position but I would like to show a
range name instead.
Anyone knows how to do this?
Regards,
Well, I found a way...
I have created an object CToolTipCtrl which I update the rect to reflect the
thumb rect position and the text in WS_HSSCROLL and NM_RELEASEDCAPTURE with
the functions UpdateTipText() and SetToolRect().
Don`t know if there are better ways to do it but this work well for now.

PowerPoint 2007 Org Chart Text Box Autofitting OptionI am working in PowerPoint 2007 (Windows 7). I've created an Org Chart, but
I want the text to STOP autofitting in my Org Chart text boxes. I
right-click on the text box, I click on Format Shape. In the dialog box that
opens, I click on the Text Box option on the left. On the right, the option
to Stop Autofitting is dimmed, as are several others.
In PowerPoint 2003, there was a Fit Text toggle on the Org Chart toolbar
that did this for me.
Thanks.
Annoying isn't it? The only way I've figured out to do it is to select the

Excel 2007I have a spreadsheet in Excel 2007 where the wrap text function is not
working properly. The text height is getting cut off before the full text
displays. The AutoFit Row Height function does nothing. There is no merging
or anything unusual in the workbook.
By the way, the print preview does display the full text of the cell, but
the regular worksheet view does not show the full cell. I have looked at the
maximum height (which is 409 pts) and my rows are not at that height, so I'm
not sure what's causing the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

both the opportunity title and the job number it has been assigned are

How to associate XML with XSDHi all,
I've decided it's time to get a little bit smarter about how I deal with XML in
my apps, so I have a couple of really basic questions (that probably demonstrate
my complete lack of understanding of the underlying concepts):
1. Assuming that I have an XML file and its associated XSD file, what do I put
into the XML file to tell Visual Studio to use the XSD file to wire up
intellisense? The examples I've seen using "xmlns" all seem to use an internet
URL to specify the schema file, but I don't have a web server...
2. Is there something else that I need ...

Count specific text only if adjacent cell is blank?Hi all,

Hyperlink from plain text.I am importing an Access Query into a sheet of my Excel file. This query has
a column that is all hyperlinks. My problem is that instead of importing as
a hyperlink, it comes into Excel as plain text. I have used HYPERLINK(A1) to

text. Is there a way I can delete this first character, then use
HYPERLINK(A1) to get my hyperlink into a column that is unaffected by data
