a) appear more app-like, and
b) show more data in the available space.
I do not want to go too elaborate by hiding (remembering and restoring) control bars and I reckon the View Full Screen is pretty much okay for my purposes. I am currently invoking View Full Screen on Workbook_Activate but hitting the ESC key returns to normal view. I can already see my users hitting the ESC key for various reasons and ruining my master plan. Is there are any way to prevent unintended ESC from Full-Screen or otherwise lock in the full-screen mode until revoked intentionally by macro (shortcut)?

I seem to be stuck in "Full Screen" mode. When I go to the View menu, both "Full Screen" and "Normal" are highlighted. I can't seem to get out of Full Screen. I am using Excel 2003, XP SP3 installed. This just started this am. I did download and install Microsoft patches this am. ??? I am able to save and use Excel but without normal view my formating buttons etc. are not available.
how do i achieve maximum full-screen mode in excel 2007.... i would like if only main menu tabs are visible (File|Insert|Page Layout...etc)... Also is it possible to hide the numerics and alphabets numbers of Rows and Columns??
I have created a spreadsheet and wanted to originally see if I could save as a separate format (that makes it more like an application than an Excel spreadsheet). Having investigated, I found that full screen mode pretty much does what I want, however you can restore the menus by pressing ESC or selecting restore down. Is there a way of preventing users from exiting full screen mode, I could add a close application button for them to use instead.
I'm just looking to prevent users from using the print screen or the alt print screen buttons on the keyboard. I have this script that works if I use "39" (Right Arrow)but wont work if I use "42" (Print Screen Button).
This is a simple fine line crosshair which ALWAYS extends the full screen width and height. Excel users seem to be stuck with the little box cross. A full screen crosshair for Excel would allow one to instantly and easily see which row and column the cursor is on without clicking a cell or following from the cursor to the row/column with your finger on the screen. It may seem trivial, but once you have used a full screen crosshair, you just don't know what you've been missing.
I'm using Excel 2010. I have a workbook with only 1 worksheet in it and it will be sent to several people. I want that excel file to open in Full View when the end user opens it. Is this possible without any VBA codes?
I have large workbook with various sheets. In my first worksheet I have some command buttons that call each sheet as needed. However, I would like each sheet to be displayed either as a web page or in a way that the user does not see all of the menus, bars and so on.
i have an excel workbook containing approx 20 worksheets. What I would like to do is make the workbook go full screen when the user opens the file and allow the user to save as into the same file path the workbook is stored when closed
This might be extremely easy, but why my Excel (nor Word for that matter) doesn't go to full screen anymore? I'm pretty sure that I haven't used any options, I do have a new graphics card, but all the other applications goes to full screen. I have restarted my computer. Basically I think that it's either some option, or then reinstalling Office.
is there a way i can make my user form in full screen? i already drag it to it's full screen but i still can see the blue tool bar with X (close) button i also want to run the macro when i open the file i want it to run automatically with full screen....
How can I make excel go to full screen (Alt-W-E) as soon as a workbook is opened and then revert back to normal view when it is closed? I already have this code in my workbook_open event just in case that will affect the answer:
HTML Code: Private Sub Workbook_Open() If Not LockSheet(ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet) Then Exit Sub
My workbook operates in full screen mode simly to make it looks a bit nicer. I have some + - buttons that call a macro to change the scale of the axes of a chart (sort of a zoom effect). For some reason, whenever I run these macros my workbook exits out of full screen mode.
I had a spreadsheet with 17 photos on, one in each cell. I had to resize so you can see them all on the screen. If you have some pictures that are resized to fit in cells, is there any way to double click (or hover?) them and make them actual size or full screen when you want to view them in detail?
I have an issue, and I need some help. I am using MS excel 2002.
I have frozen the line with the column headings. In some of the column headings there are comments. Because the panes are frozen when the user scrolls to a certain point the comments cant be seen. Is there any way to fix this? or get around this.
I have 2 workbooks open. In the workbook that I am working in I run a macro from a userform to copy a worksheet from the other workbook that is idle in the back ground. I also display another user form that says "please wait" while the macro is running.
The problem I have is even though screen updating is set to false the screen switches over to the other workbook while it is copying the desired sheet and switches back to the workbook I am copying to after the macro completes. Also the "Please Wait" userform disappears while the other workbook is displayed and reappears when the initial workbook returns.
Below is my code which works without issue but perhaps there's a better way to copy between workbooks that would prevent the screen changes?
I'm working with text boxes in Excel that have hyperlinks attached to defined names on a worksheet. Basically just to navigate around a large sheet.
They work fine, but when the mouse is hovered over the text box it automatically displays the address of the defined name, which looks messy and I want to get rid of it.
I have tried inserting a single space in the screen tip box, but that displays a small rectangular box. I have also tried "" hoping nullstring maybe interpreted as not to display, but it instead displays the speech marks.
Has anybody done this before? I've seen it done, but I have no idea how the model creator did it.
I have a VBA code that copy data from multiple files into my workbook.
I find the first file, copy the ranges I need into my workbook and continue to the next file until all files are done.
The copy operation in each file is - row by row - because I need to ask questions about each row.
As you understand - what the user sees is a flickering window because I activate the source workbbok -> copy the data -> activate this workbook-> paste the data.
I want to avoid the flickering.
An acceptable solution could be to generate a pop up message box that will say "data is being copied. Pleasd wait while operation is completed". BUT - I don't know how to identify that the action is done and message box can be closed.
I want to find out the most frequently occurring value for the below example. Based on the example below I want to know Column A = Sales, Column B = s682, which value is the most frequently occurred.
Is there a good/easy formula to use when trying to find the mean, median and mode for a column? If so, can someone post it? I'd like to make it as easy as possible (obviously!).
I want to use a formula to detect which name is appearing most in a selected range of cells. The Mode formula gives this result but for numbers. I was thinking of the probability of having to combine the LEN function with the MODE function.
