AskWoody LoungerThanks for the input. I couldn’t find anything.
Finally did a test on the corporate WAN. We managed to get 10 folks connected to the host PC using v3.01. I think we could have gone higher. So we still are not sure what the limit is. -

AskWoody LoungerOctober 16, 2001 at 4:41 pm in reply to: Data Validation circumvented by data forms (Excel 97/2000) #547041One solution is to set both the data validation and the form to get data from the same named range.
For the validation choose list and =RangeName. Works even if the range is on a different sheet. -

AskWoody LoungerThanks.
That is what I was looking for. I was try to avoid making multiple x, x^2,… columns. Didn’t think to use the XRange^{1,2,3}. Also wanted a 0 intercept which is false on the 3rd parameter. I just love double negatives. -

AskWoody LoungerAn alternate way is to use different series for the different colors. Have the base data in the first column. The second column has just the blue data points. The third has red and so one. Make a bar chart from the 2nd column on. Each series gets a different color. Adjust the bar widths and overlaps so that the bars plot on top of each other. This won’t be a problem since at each data point you have only one column with data in so only one bar will plot.

AskWoody LoungerIf you use Excels built in date/time formats, the values must be positive. A negative value formated to time is displayed as #######. One workaround is to convert from time to decimals or either minutes, hours, days (whatever works for you particular case. In Excel dates 1 = 24 hours. (Since you are dealing with relative time, we can hopefuly ignore base dates) 11:30am = 0.4792 (days) If you want decimal hours just multiply by 24 and you get 11.5 hours. If you need hh:mm:ss then try something along the lines of
=SIGN(A1)*INT(ABS(A1))&”:”&(ABS(A1)-INT(ABS(A1)))*60 -

AskWoody LoungerI would replace your IF THEN ELSEIF with a SELECT CASE statement and eliminate the FOR i = to to 250.
If ncell.Value “” Then ‘ If cell is blank then it gets skipped
Select Case ncell.Value
Case 1
ncell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
Case 2
ncell.Interior.ColorIndex = 4
Case 3
ncell.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
Case 4
ncell.Interior.ColorIndex = 7
Case Else
End Select
End IfThis lets you do other things with non-numeric cell values if you want.

AskWoody LoungerAugust 2, 2001 at 6:03 pm in reply to: Combo box/macros not working through IE (2000 SR1 & 97 SR2) #1786612I think the problem is that Excel is running inside IE. With Excel 97, VBA gets confused as to which application the code is refering to. It wants to run in IE instead of Excel, which is not what you intended. I guess they have fixed it in O2000.
I can’t find the exact Q but I remember reading it, because we had a similar problem. I haven’t tired it with 2000 yet.
We have added a note saying that the spreadsheet may not work inside the browser, so right-click and save Target as.
Not overly helpful though. -

AskWoody LoungerThanks for looking. Not really what I was looking for though. Using that link as a base. I need the form to be able to have mulitple ‘Title’ or ‘Title’ …. ‘Titile’ . The SQL isn’t a real problem it is more the DHTML need to create the user input from.

AskWoody LoungerThe last parameter of Vlookup is Range_Lookup. If it is set to false then you need an exact match to return a result. Something like
=vlookup(testname,matchlist,1,false)
If you name is there then you get at match else you get an error. -

AskWoody LoungerLets not forget the the alt-Print Screen. Copies the active window into the clipboard. Paste into photo editor and crop. Fast, simple, and you already have all the parts. Works for any application
