Thanks all for the input! I haven’t had the time to fully address this yet, but am running scans with Malwarebytes and MSE tonight. I will let you know the outcome if anything turns up there. If I am unsuccessful there I will be running a clean reinstall of the OS (really a “faux” install, updating the current OS).

I’ve used both for quite some time and finally (this year) settled on LastPass, and for all the reasons Ted has already mentioned. Great product that I haven’t left in my other pants at home :rolleyes:

I had done that earlier (before posting here), and then I realized it was affecting more than just the Office Apps.

Am I only looking in the “Shell Folder”, or all “Types”? If the former, then you’re right – there are only a few there. If the latter, then there are about 50 or so.

I’m not sure what you mean by that (what are the other “handlers”?), and I’m not certain how to use shellexview seeing as there doesn’t seem to be any instructions. Can I simply stop and start each one to see if it affects the ability to lauch an app, or do I need to reboot each time?

Sorry for being so lame about these things; I really appreciate your help.

EDIT: I found the HTML help doc.

I also had an error message show up on my screen when I did a reboot, and before loading any “applications” (see image). Also image of processes at time of error message.

Did both. System Restore worked this time.
Problem Remains (no earlier restore point).

Nope, and nope. I will attempt to do both.

Don’t recall any recent installs. System Restore failed.

Thanks Joe. I downloaded and installed . . . .
With 396 entries I won’t have time to examine one-by-one any time soon, but I still appreciate your input and the application.

Thanks John, I tried the demo and liked it (and tucked it away in my “tools” folder). However, I discovered that all I needed to do was change:

. . . .Journal Docs” & Me.ID & “.pdf” to
. . . .Journal Docs” & Me.ID

I actually had thought that I had tried that earlier without success, but I tried again only because I didn’t understand why it wouldn’t. It’s working fine now. Thanks again for your always valued input:clapping:

Downloading an app wasn’t exactly what I was looking for . . . but having done so I like the solution, along with the “extra’s”. Thanks man; good stuff!

Two options I can think of:

1. Set up a hyperlink in the cells with the dates in Sheet1, pointing to the location to go to in Sheet2. Generate Named Ranges in Sheet2 for the jump-to locations.

2. Create a macro in Sheet1 for the BeforeDoubleClick event to take you to the correct location on Sheet2. The example below will position the cursor in the same row and column in Sheet2 when a cell in Sheet1 is double-clicked. You need to customize the .Activate line to position the cursor where you want for your application.

Code:

Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
    Worksheets(“Sheet2”).Activate
    ActiveSheet.Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column).Activate
End Sub

This macro is copied to the Sheet1 worksheet code page, which can be accessed by right-clicking on the Sheet1 tab and selecting “View Code”.

Actually, I see where the result I wanted is accomplished by what you provided – I don’t need to do anything further. I did copy the same code to the destination sheet so I have an easy way to return. Thanks again for the help PJ, this works very well!

Sorry for the delay, I thought I would have received a notice when someone replied.

I like the second option you suggest, but don’t really understand how to enter the .Activate variables. The range I am looking at is A5 through A370. Thanks for your help with this . . . and I will look at my settings to see about notifications (I guess that’s where to look – I’ve been away for a while).

OK, I got a little bored waiting to see if someone had a solution, and started hitting “F” keys.

F8 got me back on track
YAY! :clapping:
