Undo / Redo - they do NOT work properly after a save. Before a save, its great - I can undo / redo many many changes.
After a save, I can only undo 2 changes, but the worst thing is it ONLY REDOES ONE of them.
I work by saving very regularly, then I go and look at something on the sheet, and then use Undo / Redo to get back to where I was last updating the sheet and see what I had just been working on, especially if its a few minutes in between.
However, when I do that now, it undoes my last change, but the redo has been lost. So I do:
change, save, undo, redo
and it just doesn't do the redo. The redo button is greyed out.
If I do:
change, change, save, undo, undo, redo, redo
the first redo works, and the second fails as the redo has been lost.
It seems pretty basic that undo / redo should be symmetrical but they aren't, at least now.
I would rather just not have undo after save at all than this broken version.
Why are they putting so much stuff in Excel but they can't even get one of the most basic parts of spreadsheets correct - such as undo / redo, and the ability to open independent spreadsheets without having to change things in the registry (which I have had to do so I can work on two spreadsheets in a semi-sane fashion, undo being shared across your sheets otherwise). MS needs a back to basics...
My cells have wrap around text enables. However when I double-click the row, it does not automatically adjust the row height to accommodate all of the text. It shrinks to a small row height. How do I fix this?

I am creating many tables in excel using a macro, and I want to copy them into a word document for later use. All the tables come from a long list, so for simplicity, they all get created on the same range starting at F1. Before deleting the existing table and adding the new one, I'm trying to copy/cut the table and paste it into a word document.
In case it makes a difference, I have office 2007
VB:
Sub ExcelToWord(LastRow)
Dim objWord As Word.Application
Range("F1:F" & LastRow).Copy
With objWord
.Documents.Add
.Selection.Paste
.Visible = True
End With
End Sub
I have created a form in Excel 2007. I need converting the form to Word or PDF.
Have tried:
Simple copy paste - obviously unsuccessful.
Downloaded Adobe Pro X1 but free version doesn't allow me to convert.
Downloaded Total Excel Converter doesn't give me what I'm looking for.
i have a pivot. i need the row of the pivot to be word wrap. it that possible? every time i refresh the pivot, the wrap should stay.
i am using excel 2007.
I need to convert numbers to text in excel 2007. I have done it before in 2003, but can't seem to remember exactly what I used. I may have used some kind of conditional formatting, but not sure.
Here is an example of what I need.
If I type "7203" in a cell I want "Home Repairs" to appear. I have a list of words associated with a list of numbers and want to be able to type the number in a cell and have the word appear.
I am currently using MS Office Excel 2007 and my limited VBA knowledge has put me at a stop of a project that I have been working on. I am trying to create an excel template that will open every word document in a specific folder and pull data located in the title of the document.
For example, I want the spreadsheet to open every document and pull info from the title that would look similar to this:
"line of business";"policy #";"dollar amount";"name";"line of business" and etc.
The semicolons in the title would partition the data across a few cells.
Below is the coding that I currently have, This is my timestamp. Column A adds a timestamp whenever data is entered into the corresponding cell in Column B. Because of this, I need data to be pulled from Word documents and inserted into Column B.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Rng As Range
For Each Rng In Target
If Not Rng.Value = vbNullString Then
Select Case Rng.Column
[code]....
Below is some coding, but not very specified to my specific needs.
Sub SplitValue(Rng As Range)
Dim avarSplit As Variant
avarSplit = Split(Rng.Value, ";")
Range(Rng, Rng.Offset(, 4)).Value = avarSplit
If Left(Rng.Value, 2) = "RE" Or Left(Rng.Value, 2) = "FW" Then
[code]....
Also not sure if the word document is to be pulling information from the title, if I would need to negate ".doc" from data being imported.
Currently I am working on a system uploading data from word(with what i think has a script) into a database one by one.(template of somesort) the data is stored into the database in word format.
can i place all the data in rows then get excel to transfer cell content into word and wait for it to upload then clear the contents(word) then do the next row(excel) until it did every cell that's filled? do i need any other applications for this one or can excel alone do it? i'd also like to add a new tab to excel for the command on when excel will do this.
I have a 2007 Excel spreadsheet (saved as .XLS) with worker names in column A and error types in column B. Column B can have multiple entries (which are sometimes duplicative of each other) separated by a hard return.
What I need to do is run tallies to determine the number of errors by type for each person, counting the value every time it appears, even if it is more than once in a particular cell. The ultimate goal is to generate a formula to track the number of occurrences for all error types types for the person in Column A (i.e. one formula each to track ABC's Procedural errors, ABC's Technical errors, ABC's Admin errors, DEF's Procedural, etc) though ideally I just need a formula to calculate any one of those and I can edit it to get the rest. Here's a sample screenshot:
The COUNTIFS formula is where I started but that only seems to count cells with the value as opposed to occurrences of the value. I did find this formula in my searches but it doesn't seem to work:
=SUM(LEN(B1:B100)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B1:B100),"Procedural","")))/LEN("Procedural")

I need to generate a microsoft word document from the data encoded in my excel spreadsheet. I am currently using MS office 2007.
in the Excel Spreadsheet from columns C to F "a) b) c) d)" was not typed but in the word document it automatically appears before the choices encoded in excel. Another thing is that some of the choices typed in the excel spreadsheet are in bold font and I want it to be generated in word document with the bold font as well.
By the way I am planning to use this technique to create a 100 item multiple choice exam for my students as I find using EXCEL to generate the document a lot easier than creating the test manually in WORD.
I am working on word documents that has financial numbers on them. I am copying word pages to excel to calculate the numbers by using formulas and etc. I will cut to the chase; is there a way or a macro to insert into an excel template workbook(.xltx) when we open the template there will be a command button to select the word document (which we want to copy its pages) to excel sheets. When a new page begins a new sheet will be created and the page will be pasted on the new sheet.
It is not important if it has to have a command button to select the word document it is ok to run the macro and select the word document and it does not has to populate sheets according to length of word document (I can create lost of free sheets on the template)
The main idea is to gain the time I spend on copying the word document to excel sheets. Some documents can be very long (100 pages). I am using MS Office 2007.
I triend to export data but excel does not allow me to select word documents.
I am using Windows XP and Office 2003.
I am looking to automate a process where information is sent to someone in a text format and they in turn transfer that data to an excel file. It basically looks like this (but includes a lot more info):
Service Request #: 123456
Instrument Type: New Instrument
Lot/Serial #: 123456
SR Type: Product Complaint
Service Coverage: Maintenance Agreement
The info on the left (text preceding the colon) is always the same but the values following the colon can change. The excel file has all of the text before the colon and they just enter the information into the cells. I am looking to make it so that an Excel macro (or maybe a word/outlook macro) automatically scans the text document and sends this info to the exact same cells in excel every time.
The text file is actually a message from an Oracle database and I am not going to be able to make any changes to the way the data comes in.
I have been using MSNStockQuotes on a few computers without any problems for months.
Now (in the last day or so) , when I press "update Quotes" on any of the computers, I get a "Failed to get requested Data" message. I can often "trick" it into getting the quotes by deleting a bunch of the quotes, then choosing Edit-Undo, which then fetches the quotes properly, but even that fails some of the time (same displayed message).
This happens even with older copies of my spreadsheet that used to work perfectly.
Are others having problems with MSNStockQuotes Excel Plugin?
I've created a spreadsheet it is for tracking attendance etc broken down into percentages.
What I'm looking to do is if someone doesn't attend this doesn't get added to the attendance total.

I am trying to find specific text throughout an excel document (2007) and replace it with the same text but in italics. I tried using the options/format function and selecting italics for the "replace" text but it replaces the entire cell text in italics instead.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'll try to simplify what I'm trying to do without getting into too much details that might be considered irrelevant to my question.
1. A set of VBA procedures are run successfully, and the results are compiled on a single w/s "mySheet" in a single w/b "myBook".
2. I intend to repeat 1. above 1,000s of times (same w/b, same w/s).
3. Consider a single run. The results of interest on "mySheet" are confined to a range, say, A20:K40, named "myInpRange", with a 7-digit run identifier ID automatically generated and stored in cell F5, say, F5 = 1234567
4. I've successfuly performed the following tasks manually:
...a) copy range A20:K40 of "mySheet"
...b) Open a new MS Word document
...c) Paste Special as Unformatted Text
...d) Save the Word file for this run As: LL_1234567.inp (="LL_" & F5 & ".inp")
...e) Close the Word file.
...f) Repeat a) to e) above for the next run.
Q: How to code a VBA Excel macro to handle Excel & Word, run from a button on the w/s "mySheet", and to perform the tasks a) to e) above ??
In case you might wonder why I do have to go through this trouble. Well, my next set of programs are DOS-Applications, which only allow their redirected input data files to be as described above.
I have a simple excel sheet with columns A (name1) B (name2) C (name3) D (name4) E (name5) F (text). A given name can only appear once in any given row.
I am looking for a vba code (Excel 2003) that would loop through cells in A1:E?? (number of rows varies, loop needs to find last non-empty row in column A) and look for a particular name (e.g. "Stefan Thomas"):
1) create new unnamed word doc
2) Put "New Annex" as a header (top right) in the new word doc
3) Insert text "List for Stefan Thomas" centered and underlined as the first line of the new word doc. The document will have two sections:
4) Insert text "Items in Column A" bolded and aligned to the left
5) Insert text "Items in Column B to E" bolded and aligned to the left below the section in 4
6) if "Stefan Thomas" is in column A, copy text in column F and paste in word doc as first bullet (below title "Items in Column A")
7) repeat step 6 for all other instances of "Stefan Thomas" in column A (append text as next bullet in section "Items in Column A")
8) If "Stefan Thomas" is in column B or C or D or E (can only appear once per row), copy text in column F and paste in word doc as first bullet (below title "Items in Column B to E")
9) repeat step 8 for all other instances of "Stefan Thomas" in column B or C or D or E (append text as next bullet in section "Items in Column B to E")
if you could indicate in the code how I can choose the type of bullet as well as space between bullets and font type
Let me start by stating that I am a novice at writing macro script. I am trying to write a script that will open and search a Word doc, find specific text in that document, and populate certain excel cells with that information.
Ex. of Word doc:
5.1.2.3 Install gasket [12], using bolt [5] and nut [8].
5.1.2.4 Uninstall gasket [12] and scrap gasket and fasteners.
I would like the script to search for and populate any number between the [ ] into a specific excel cell, also I would like it to identify and populate an excell cell with the associated step, e.g.: "5.1.2.3", which will be at the begining of that step (step could be several sentences long). Also, I would like the script to look for and identify/populate an excel cell with any number of words such as: "install", "uninstall", "break", "scrap", or "remove" also associated with that step.
How do I paste a text paragraph into Excel and give each individual word into its own cell?

I export data into Excel format from a corporate reporting tool. 1 column includes a product description in text format, however, due to the many different products I need to count the number of cells based on a single word in the product description.
Hypothetical Example:
The report contains various information about vehicles. The product description exports to a single column and may include "Ford Fusion", "Ford Focus", "Chevrolet Malibu", "Chevrolet Impala", etc. I only need to count how many cells contain information about Fords and Chevrolets. The model detail is not needed.
I'm able to count if I enter the complete and exact make & model description, but want to avoid this due to the large quantity of products.
I'm using Excel 2007, on Windows 7, 64 Bit Enterprise
Excel 2007 on windows 7 professional.
We've got an end user who opens a .dat file which is delimited with semi-colons, replaces some text in a couple of columns then saves as a text tab delimited file. She swears that before today, the saved file would retain the semi-colons. Now she says it's not. she generated a new .dat file for me and recreated the process, with the resultant semicolon-free file. I asked her to generate another one and send it to me. I opened it first in notepad, and saw the semi-colons.
Opened it in excel (I'm using 2010 on win 7 professional), which saw it as a delimited file and asked me to specify the delimiter. It shows up fine, all the columns are righteous. I made no edits and saved as a text tab delimited, and that saved file had no semi-colons in it when I opened it. This seems normal to me; there's no semi-colons in the excel file, so why would there be in the text tab delimited file. I asked her coworker to generate another .dat from his pc and let me know what he sees, but he hasn't reported back yet.
I am struggling with doing a sort, of a group of alpha characters within a cell (Excel 2007). My data was exported from Oracle 8 as a varchar2 and consists of letters.
Example of what I have
BAC
GHL
DFE
MEG
Example of what I want
ABC
GHL
DEF
EGM
All I could find were these complex looking solutions involving cursors, plsql, etc. I'm hoping there's a simple solution, maybe within Excel. I've tried different formatting, made sure no other characters were sharing the cells, and tried typing fresh data into a cell (instead of the exported data).
