Openoffice On Ubuntu 13.04 - Document Won't Open

Jun 12, 2013

I'm running on Ubuntu 13.04 and have a problem with libreoffice and openoffice alike. With libreoffice the problem occured, then I removed libreoffice and installed openoffice, on which the same problem occured.

Sometimes, when I open a writer document, it doesn't open. When I look into 'system-monitor' I do see the process is started, but it won't open. It doesn't do anything. No error message, nothing!

And when I try to 'end' or 'kill' the process in system monitor, it just doesn't. Then I log out and log in again, and then when I open a document, it brings my to the recovery window.

Then everything is fine, till it happens again. The same problem occurs on another pc with 13.04 also.

Open Document File From A Button Control

Apr 24, 2007

I have created simple buttons on my spreadsheet to do most everything that is needed, except to display a "Help" file. The "Help" file can be a pdf document or any other document format that will work. I don't think I need any user forms or ActiveX controls. But, then again, I am a relative newbie to VB. Is there a simple way to have a button control on an Excel spreadsheet open and display a pdf file or other document? Or is there a better way to do what I'd like?

Custom Format Code Injected On Document Open

Nov 19, 2012

I am experiencing odd behavior with Excel (v. 14). When a spreadsheet is opened, format setting of almost all cells in the workbook have changed to a custom code that reads "[$-409]0%". AFAIK the first part is not even a valid tag.

Because the underlying data is not changed, I can just select cells and reset formatting to "Number" or "General" and everything's fine. However, I'd like to get to to the root of the problem.

The problem occurs with only some workbooks. I should mention that the workbooks are circulated in different language versions of Excel, which may contribute to the problem.

Opening OpenOffice Spreadsheet In Excel?

Mar 22, 2013

Is it possible to open an OpenOffice spreadsheet in Excel while keeping all formulas?

At the minute when I try this, Excel just opens the spreadsheet with the values of each cell from OpenOffice (the results of the formulas) and not the actual formulas themselves.

Searching For Mistakes In Document While Using Another Document As Reference

Feb 2, 2014

I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.

I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.

Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.

Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.

Tracker has
columns
A - Name
B - Department
C - Date
D - Docket No.
C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z)
E to Z - all smaller entries

Invoice has
columns
A - Date
B - Docket No.
C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.

Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.

I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.

Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.

Re-arrange The Document?

Aug 4, 2008

I have an excel document with a list of about 12,000 names/addresses. They are currently displayed like this:

A B C
1 <name1> <name2> <name3>
2 <address1> <address2> <address3>
3 <zip1> <zip2> <zip3>


...and I want to re-arrange them so they are displayed horizontally:

A B C
1 <name1> <address1> <zip1>
2 <name2> <address2> <zip2>
3 <name3> <address3> <zip3>

Is there any possible way of doing this quickly without copying/pasting 12,000 lines of text?

Cannot Sort Whole Document

Oct 31, 2013

I am trying to sort a document alphabetically but cannot. I have two lines in the doc that previously had headers on them. I was able to remove them, but am now left with a row that has what looks like a backwards L in the last cell. The bottom line is also darker, but there is not a detectable border set. If I choose the rows that include these rows in my sort option, it is disabled. Sorting is available if I do not. I need to sort everything.

Is there a way that I can have an excel document "autosave"?

Specificaly I would like: If a value in a specific cell's value is changed I would like the document to automatically save the document as the name of the value that is typed into that cell when the user closes the document.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but it would be great if there was some way to do this.

Protecting The Document

Jan 15, 2008

Version used: Excel 2003

I have a spreadsheet that everyone in my department uses. My boss has asked me to protect certain columns so that only I can edit them but leave others so that the rest of the depratment can use those.

I have tried locking the ones I am to use and unlocking the ones the others can use then protecting the document. This works well enough as far as it goes, however, it is combersome having to unprotect then reprotect it every time I need to work on it. Also, that method makes the drop down lists that we are using for easy sorting no longer function.

Document Stability

Mar 18, 2009

I am currently building a program in Excel, which can carry out numerious tasks. Having over 15 userforms, countless macros and several worksheets of caculations in the background, basically all geared towards capturing customer data, producing a application form and submitting the data to an ".mdb" file.

Now everything is going well so far with little in the way of problems and the document is 2.5Mb in size (users centrally access this Read Only). I'm conducting a daily Clean Project on this but I have a few questions...

1) how far can I push an Excel workbook in terms of size/content before it becomes unstable

2) are there any tips that can be offered for program stability

3) Has anyone built anything on this scale before

...the reason I ask is the program could potentially double in size over the next 6 months depending on the volume of application types it is able to produce. I want to make sure I have considered stability.

List Recent Changes To Document?

Oct 22, 2007

Is there a way to list the recent changes to an excel document on the document itself?

For example, I have just 4 or 5 columns in the sheet, but out the the right on the 7th column I'll have a header that says "Recent Changes". Below that for X amount of rows, I would like it to keep a running change list something like this:

B14 was changed from '6.021' to '6.5' by username on 10/21/07 3:45 pm
A23 was changed from 'Sally' to 'Billy' by username on 10/21/07 2:30 pm

I thought this up by looking at the way the "Track Changes" functionality works on the Tools menu. That will highlight the cells in blue as they are changed and will also let someone look back through changes to let them accept or deny.

Macro To Format A Document

Dec 20, 2007

I am recording a macro to help me with formatting a document. I know do this manually, but realized that if I record a macro and run it the process would be faster. I have tried this and it works really well. However the problem is that although the columns are always the same, the rows increase and decrease everytime I download the raw report.

When I record the macro and then run it, it only selects the number of rows that I choose when I record the macro. I am sure there is a way to have the macro look for date and then stop after there is no more rows, but I can't find it in help.

I have tried selecting the whole document, but that slows the automated formatting down significantly.

Creating A CSV Document From A Sheet

May 15, 2008

I've got an Excel document that is generated from a third party programme (See ExcelDoc attached)

I'm trying to manipulate it so that a macro creates a CSV file like the one attached (see THK.csv)

I need to have the following columns in the CSV file populated using the Excel spreadsheet
Column A: Will need to have the NUMBER that is in cell B2 of the Excel file in this case the number is 0714 (need to keep the preceeding 0 too)
Column B: Will need the phone number
Column C: Will need the fax number
Column D: Will need to have the email address
Column E: Will need to have the date only
Column F: Will need to have the Order Number
Column G: Will need to have the Customer name
Column H: Will need to have the Customer telephone number
Column I: Will need to have the Customer alternative telephone number
**Column J: Will need to have the 1st line of the address (after First Address in xls doc)
Column K: Will need to have the 2nd line of the address
Column L: Will need to have the 3rd line of the address
Column M: Will need to have the 4th line of the address
Column N: Will need to be a blank cell
Column O: Will need to be a blank cell
Column P: Will need to be a blank cell
Column Q: Will need to be a blank cell
Column R: Will need to be a blank cell
Column S: Will need to be populated with the information that is after the field MyAddress: in Cell B11 of the xls document.

I've managed to get a macro that will take the information and transpose it into a new document and rename it as an CSV file but I am having a lot of problems trying to get the macro to create the CSV file in the format that I need.

**This cell is generated and will have commas at the end of each line of the address and will be terminated by a period (at line 4 of the address. Sometimes there will be 4 lines to an address but sometimes there may only be 2 or three. In the case where there is no information I need to have a blank (null) value in the cell
