AskWoody LoungerThanks Hans….
There are so many little features in all the MS products. How does someone find the time to learn them all??
It worked like a charm.Deb

AskWoody LoungerWhen you export as text, it exports as tab (or comma) delimited. Things will not naturally line up!
Try this:
Select the data
Press down the SHIFT key and click on EDIT.
CHoose the option copy as picture.This will place an image on the clipboard that you can paste into another program.
It can not be an image…the list contains all the users that will have access to this imaging system.
I can create some code to import the list…if it is txt and lines up exactly…to import the names in this new system so I do not have to enter them one at a time. -

AskWoody LoungerWhich option in the “Save As” dropdown list did you select when saving the worksheet as a text file?
I have tried all the options.
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerJust as a number…28 minutes is entered as 28.
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerTried this already….compacting that is!
Ok..do I have to do each object 1 at a time to the new database???
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerThanks for the suggestions however it did not work.
Here is another twist…I did a file/save as…the name in the blue title bar did not change. I changed a text box and tried to close it. A dialog box appear asking me to save the “new name” but it will not let me. It will not exit.
Has networking done something with my rights???

AskWoody LoungerConverting to a text box….work GREAT!
Thanks and have a wonderful weekend.

AskWoody LoungerI did this and it did not work. The charge amts are different so it makes each record still unique. I still get 2.
Thanks for the suggestions…any more???

AskWoody LoungerThat is a good idea however it will not work here. He wants it to look like an invoice…so the totals need to be at the bottom. Can you put formulas in footers??
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerTHANKS….that works.
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerThat is what I was griping about….LOL
I was not getting all the data that I wanted to extract out in a random sampling.Thanks for your help. I appreciate your efford.

WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerThis is not working for me.
When I fill the formula, I get all sorts of data. Not the entire record for that person.
=index($b$2:$u$20,RANDBETWEEN(1,20),RANDBETWEEN(1,3))
I am trying to figure this out before applying to my large worksheet. So I copied 20 records and I only want a random sampling of 3.
What am I doing wrong?Deb
-
WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerI have done something similar and well..it is more work. I do not understand why it will not extract all the columns. I try to get the computer to work for me and me not work for it..but apparently I will have to build some coding or do my cutting and pasting routine for this option.
Thanks

AskWoody LoungerThanks for your help.
I really like the column about the visit – first, etc. This will be a big plus since all the records are not sorted by patient’s name.Deborah

WSDeborah
AskWoody LoungerOK….I got a problem.
Boss wants me to put my totals on the first page…..
When I move my totals to the page header…it does not calculate correctly.HELP.
