    Is my graphics card up to the job?

    Thanks Martin. You're absolutely right. The laptop could run CS5 but very slowly. I have work to get through so I would go mad. I've taken the decision to buy a desktop instead. I've finally managed to spec it out, but wanted to check if the graphics card, 1GB Nvidia® GeForce® GTX 460 Graphics...

    Can't get VLOOKUP to work -- can anyone help?

    Thank you very much Lilliabeth. That seems to be working much better. From row 515, because there are no more lookup values in column R from here on, the only thing returned in column F is "PDF, PDF on CD (1)", and column G, "0". Is there anything I can do to prevent this? What I wanted was...

    Can't get VLOOKUP to work -- can anyone help?

    Thanks so much Lilliabeth. Sorry to be dense, but can I just confirm, should I paste that last formula into cell F2 and pull it down to F2449. And how should I amend the formula in G2 (to display any information in column D, "Information", in column G)? Many thanks, Sam

    Can't get VLOOKUP to work -- can anyone help?

    Hi, The lookup value "2143" is in cell B5 (the lookup values run from B2 to B514, while what I think is the table array, that is the range that is searched against the lookup value, runs from A2 to A2449) A601 contains "ISO2143 : 1981" C601 contains "Paper, PDF" D601 contains "Colours" As...

    Can't get VLOOKUP to work -- can anyone help?

    Hi, I've uploaded a new version so I can illustrate an example. B5 contains the number 2143 (what I call the lookup value) A601 contains a match I would like columns F601 and G601 to display what is in C601 and D601 Hopefully, this makes sense. Thanks for any help...

    Can't get VLOOKUP to work -- can anyone help?

    Hi, I am trying to analyse some data with what I *think* should be a Vlookup formula (first time using it), but am hopelessly confused and would be very grateful for some help with the attached, hopefully to amend what I think is an incorrect formula (I've either done it wrong or Vlookup is not...

    A new desktop powerful enough to run Adobe Creative Suite 5

    Hi, I need to buy a new desktop for my freelance work. I want a PC powerful enough to comfortably run the latest version of Adobe Creative Suite. So I’ve decided to make the investment in a decent system that’s fairly fast (and a new/refurbished 19"-to-21"-inch monitor). To save money, I’d like...

    Installing a new graphics card on a laptop

    Hi, It is possible to upgrade a graphics card in the Dell Latitude D620. I have been told that this is either more difficult with laptops (as opposed to desktops) or not possible on many models, and just wanted to check. Many thanks, Sam

    Upgrading from CS3 to CS5: is my CPU up to the job?

    Upgrading from CS3 to CS5: is my graphics card up to the job?

    Hi there, I need to upgrade my software (to Adobe InDesign CS5 from CS3) and am now looking into the options. Adobe has recommended a 1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit video card. Having looked at the system information of my graphics card on my laptop, I see it is an NVIDIA...

    Hi there, I need to upgrade my software (to Adobe InDesign CS5 from CS3) and am now looking into the options. My laptop runs Intel Core 2 (2.00GHz), but Adobe recommends Intel Pentium 4 as a system requirement (my laptop, Dell Latitude D620, matches or exceeds all other requirements, XP Pro...

    MS Word 2003 colour palette customisation

    Hi, I'm creating a template and want to include easy access to the company's corporate colours -- either through a toolbar, or as the default choice of colours when you select a colour, which I know is possible in Excel. Is this possible in Word (without coding)? Many thanks, Sam

    Removing unnecessary clipping masks, compound paths and groups

    Hi, Sorry to be a pain, but I'm not sure which script it is. I downloaded the scripts and they are available correctly from within Illustrator; but having checked all the descriptions for the various scripts on the website, I can't find one that sounds right. Do you know the name of the script...

    Removing unnecessary clipping masks, compound paths and groups

    Hi, I'm currently pasting it directly in Excel, and have previously tried the PDF route. Haven't tried the wmf method so will give it a go -- thanks. What I really want to know I think is whether a script could be written to achieve this, or an already available add-on, something to do it with...

    Removing unnecessary clipping masks, compound paths and groups

    Hi, I often work with charts from Excel in Illustrator (CS3 on Windows XP). Are there any scripts or add-ons I can use to remove all the unnecessary clipping masks, compound paths, and groups from Excel charts pasted into Illustrator (in one step rather than manually ungrouping and deleting)...
