    Excel starts up in R1C1 mode

    My Excel 2000 started opening up in R1C1 mode. I can do 'Tools / Options / General / uncheck R1C1 reference style' and it will stay in A1 mode until I close Excel. When I start Excel again the blank sheet is back to R1C1 mode. I have killed the Excel*.xlb file and removed all files from the...

    Columns named 1,2,3 instead of A,B,C

    I have a similar problem. My Excel always starts up in R1C1 mode. I can do 'Tools / Options / General / uncheck R1C1 reference style' and it will stay in A1 mode until I close Excel. When I start Excel again the blank sheet is back to R1C1 mode. I have killed the Excel*.xlb file and removed...

    Excel Macro Prompt

    You can also disable the 'Enable/Disable' prompt by going to the Tools menu- Macro- Security and switching to the 'Low' setting. Hopefully you already have an anti-virus program that stops any virus' before they get to Excel.

    Excel Documents wont load

    Dreamboat, Back on the problem of opening files from Windows Explorer, I think I discovered the solution. Microsoft has an Excel 2002 SP-2 Update (October 16,2002) that appears to have fixed the problem. See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];329750

    Excel Documents wont load

    I performed the steps in 'cleanyourpc.htm' and also ran the Office 'Repair' from the install CD. The problem continues. We have discovered another user with the same problem (Office XP again). Any other suggestions?

    Excel Documents wont load

    It is happening on a Windows 98 PC with Office XP and on Windows 2000 SP3 with Office XP. I am only concerned about the Windows 2000 machines.

    Excel Documents wont load

    Soundguy, what did you try that corrected the problem? Also what version of Excel are you using. We have also experienced files not opening from Groupwise or Windows Explorer. The user may open files many times, then all at once one will not open when double-clicking an attachment or from...

    Define Variable for multiple workbooks

    That will work, I wasn't sure you could pass an array with all it's data via the argument syntax, but it appears to work. Thanks for the help. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a simplier way.

    Define Variable for multiple workbooks

    Is it possible to define a variable in one workbook module and reference it in another workbook? I want to call a subroutine from another workbook and have it recognize a variable set in the calling workbook subroutine. (It's a utility subroutine that I'd like to call from any other workbook)...

    TextToColumns dialog box - argument settings

    Creating a custom userform would allow me to control the options, but how do you simulate the 'Step 3 of 3' dialog box 'Data Preview' window? The user must be able to select the 'Column Data Format:' for each column (which changes for each different import)?

    too many code windows in VBE

    I have noticed the same thing. Have you tried using the 'Project Explorer' window (View- Project Explorer). I place it on the lefthand side of the VBE application as narrow as I can view the files. Then when I open up VBE I just maximize the top code window & move from module to module by...

    In VBA, is it possible to check the current argument settings for the 'Text to Columns' dialog box before opening it for the user? Specifically, is the Delimited 'Other:' box checked and what 'other_char:' is used? Alernately, is there a way to get to the 3rd dialog box of the 'Text to...
