Macro to copy values to new sheet and prompt user where they want to save

- by MasterJedi

I'm looking to create a macro in Excel 2007 which will do the following: copy the formatting and values from a sheet called 'report', insert this into a new workbook, naming the file with the value in 'B9' and appending the word 'report' to this when copying the data into a new workbook, the formatting of the original should be retained, but cell contents pasted as values rather than formulas prior to saving the file with the above name, the user will be prompted to choose their folder at the end, a message will be displayed alerting the user that the file has been saved successfully Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks. I have attempted to do this, but my experience with VBA is limited. Here is what I have done so far... Application.DisplayAlerts = False Worksheets("Report").Copy With ActiveSheet.UsedRange .Value = .Value End With ActiveSheet.DrawingObjects.Delete Set wbNew = ActiveWorkbook wbNew.SaveAs Application.GetSaveAsFilename wbNew.Close True Application.DisplayAlerts = True

Can I lock (or make uneditable) portions of a word document?

- by CT

I am looking to make a letterhead for my company. Right now I currently have an image within the header of the document and an image within the footer of the document. Is there any way I can lock these portions of the page so that other users cannot edit the header or footer? Thank you.

Table Formatting in Word

- by user359217

I have a table in Word which is 5 columns wide and multiple rows. In Row 3, cells 1, 2, 3 & 5 have simple text. Cell 4 contains a large quantity of text and therefore needs to wrap over several pages. Therefore, I mark "Allow row to break across pages". Problem: on next page where row has wrapped, cells 1, 2, 3 & 5 are blank with cell 4 displaying the wrapped text. Is there any way that I can get the simple text from Row 3, cells 1, 2 and 3 to repeat on the pages which contain the wrapped text of cell 4? I do not want the data to be in the table heading, as I have multiple rows which have a similar volume of text.

Insert blank row on two conditions

- by lost_my_wallet_in_el_segundo

I have a spreadsheet with a large number of rows. There are two rows grouped together (for each customer). In column A, the first row has an account number. The second row should be blank. The spreadsheet has lots of customers listed where there is no second row. I need to insert a blank line to create a second row for each customer that doesn't have one. Here is the VBA script I cobbled together, but it gets a syntax error. Sub Macro1() ' ' Macro1 Macro ' For myrow = 1 To Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row If Cells(myrow, 1) <> "" and Cells(myrow+1, 1) <> "" Then Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove End Sub

Excel: How to Compare Column Values in a Row

- by spazzie

I have a bunch of comparison data and a lot of entries being compared. As an example, say my sheet looks like this, give or take a few columns: Item Price1 Quantity1 Price2 Quantity2 Price3 Quantity3 001 $123 12 $456 24 $789 48 002 $100 95 $200 5 $300 51 For each item (row), I want to be able to look at all of the Quantity columns and find which one has the highest quantity. Ideally I'd be able to run a condition of some sort on the entire excel sheet at once, and it would highlight in red the highest quantity. So the results would be a red "48" (qty3) for Item 001 and a red "95" (qty1) for Item 002. Only the color would change, not any data, and no new rows would need to be created. Let me know if you need more info

Microsoft products such as Visual Studio 2010 does not require to enter serial number

- by MainMa

Hi, I am member of WebsiteSpark and was member of DreamSpark. Both programs enable to download software and provide serial keys to use. Some software like Windows Server has an ISO file to download and a serial number displayed on the website which I must enter during installation. Some other software does not have any serial key. For example, when I downloaded Visual Studio 2010, there was just a link to an ISO file. During installation, there was no such a field as serial number (whereas Visual Studio 2008 had this field at the beginning of installation process). There is the same thing with SQL Server 2008 and Microsoft Expression Studio 3. Even when I've downloaded the public trial RTM version of Windows Seven Enterprise, there were no serial number to enter. I don't think that such expensive products as SQL Server 2008 Enterprise are delivered without serials and online validation, so I suppose that the serial is embedded into the product itself, either in installation binaries or in a separate config file, so is already in the ISO I download so I do not have to enter it. So my question is, how it is done technically? Is each 2 GBs ISO generated on-demand on the server to embed a serial each time this ISO is requested? I suppose that if it is done, it has a huge impact on servers performance (no caching, no streaming...), so what may be the techniques used behind? I want to implement the same feature in a product I intend to ship (to simplify installation by avoiding to ask to enter serial number), but I really don't see how to do it with low impact on server performance.

Sampler referencing in HLSL - Sampler parameter must come from a literal expression

- by user1423893

The following method works fine when referencing a sampler in HLSL float3 P = lightScreenPos; sampler ShadowSampler = DPFrontShadowSampler; float depth; if (alpha >= 0.5f) { // Reference the correct sampler ShadowSampler = DPFrontShadowSampler; // Front hemisphere 'P0' P.z = P.z + 1.0; P.x = P.x / P.z; P.y = P.y / P.z; P.z = lightLength / LightAttenuation.z; // Rescale viewport to be [0, 1] (texture coordinate space) P.x = 0.5f * P.x + 0.5f; P.y = -0.5f * P.y + 0.5f; depth = tex2D(ShadowSampler, P.xy).x; depth = 1.0 - depth; } else { // Reference the correct sampler ShadowSampler = DPBackShadowSampler; // Back hemisphere 'P1' P.z = 1.0 - P.z; P.x = P.x / P.z; P.y = P.y / P.z; P.z = lightLength / LightAttenuation.z; // Rescale viewport to be [0, 1] (texture coordinate space) P.x = 0.5f * P.x + 0.5f; P.y = -0.5f * P.y + 0.5f; depth = tex2D(ShadowSampler, P.xy).x; depth = 1.0 - depth; } // [Standard Depth Calculation] float mydepth = P.z; shadow = depth + Bias.x < mydepth ? 0.0f : 1.0f; If I try and do anything with the sampler reference outside the if statement then I get the following error: Sampler parameter must come from a literal expression This code demonstrates that float3 P = lightScreenPos; sampler ShadowSampler = DPFrontShadowSampler; if (alpha >= 0.5f) { // Reference the correct sampler ShadowSampler = DPFrontShadowSampler; // Front hemisphere 'P0' P.z = P.z + 1.0; P.x = P.x / P.z; P.y = P.y / P.z; P.z = lightLength / LightAttenuation.z; } else { // Reference the correct sampler ShadowSampler = DPBackShadowSampler; // Back hemisphere 'P1' P.z = 1.0 - P.z; P.x = P.x / P.z; P.y = P.y / P.z; P.z = lightLength / LightAttenuation.z; } // Rescale viewport to be [0, 1] (texture coordinate space) P.x = 0.5f * P.x + 0.5f; P.y = -0.5f * P.y + 0.5f; // [Standard Depth Calculation] float depth = tex2D(ShadowSampler, P.xy).x; depth = 1.0 - depth; float mydepth = P.z; shadow = depth + Bias.x < mydepth ? 0.0f : 1.0f; How can I reference the sampler in this manner without triggering the error?

Unable to Sign in to the Microsoft Online Services Signin application from Windows 7 client located behind ISA firewall

- by Ravindra Pamidi

A while ago i helped a customer troubleshoot authentication problem with Microsoft Online Services Signin application. This customer was evaluating Microsoft BPOS (Business Productivity Online Services) and was having trouble using the single sign on application behind ISA 2004 firewall.The network structure is fairly simple with single Windows 2003 Active Directory domain and Windows 7 clients. On a successful logon to the Microsoft Online Services Signin application, this application provides single signon functionality to all of Microsoft online services in the BPOS package. Symptoms:When trying to signin it fails with error "The service is currently unavailable. Please try again later. If problems continue, contact your service administrator". If ISA 2004 firewall is removed from the picture the authentication succeeds.Troubleshooting: Enabled ISA Server firewall logging along with Microsoft Network Monitor tool on the Windows 7 Client while reproducing the issue. Analysis of the ISA Server Firewall logs and Microsoft Network capture revealed that the Microsoft Online Services Sign In application when sending request to ISA Server does not send the domain credentials and as a result ISA Server responds with an error code of HTTP 407 Proxy authentication required listing out the supported authentication mechanisms. The application in question is expected to send the credentials of the domain user in response to this request. However in this case, it fails to send the logged on user's domain credentials. Bit of researching on the Internet revealed that The "Microsoft Online Services Sign In" application by default does not support Outbound Internet Proxy authentication. In order for it to send the logged on user's domain credentials we had to make changes to its configuration file "SignIn.exe.config" located under "Program Files\Microsoft Online Services\Sign In" folder. Step by Step details to configure the configuration file are documented on Microsoft TechNet website given below. Configure your outbound authenticating proxy serverhttp://www.microsoft.com/online/help/en-us/helphowto/cc54100d-d149-45a9-8e96-f248ecb1b596.htm After the above problem was addressed we were still not able to use the "Microsoft Online Services Sign In" application and it failed with the same error. Analysis of another network capture revealed that the application in question is now sending the required credentials and the connection seems to terminate at a later stage. Enabled verbose logging for the "Microsoft Online Services Sign In" application and then reproduced the problem. Analysis of the logs revealed a time difference between the local client and Microsoft Online services server of around seven minutes which is above the acceptable time skew of five minutes. Excerpt from Microsoft Online Services Sign In application verbose log: 1/26/2012 1:57:51 PM Verbose SingleSignOn.GetSSOGenericInterface SSO Interface URL: https://signinservice.apac.microsoftonline.com/ssoservice/UID1/26/2012 1:57:52 PM Exception SSOSignIn.SignIn The security timestamp is invalid because its creation time ('2012-01-26T08:34:52.767Z') is in the future. Current time is '2012-01-26T08:27:52.987Z' and allowed clock skew is '00:05:00'.1/26/2012 1:57:52 PM Exception SSOSignIn.SignIn Although the Windows 7 Clients successfully synchronized time to the domain controller for the domain, the domain controller was not configured to synchronize time with external NTP servers. This caused a gradual drift in time on the network thus resulting in the above issue. Reconfigured the domain controller holding the PDC FSMO role to synchronize time with external time source ( time.nist.gov ) and edited the system policy on the ISA server firewall to allow NTP traffic to time.nist.gov Configure the time source for the forest:Windows Time Servicehttp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc794937(WS.10).aspx Forced synchronization of Windows time using the command w32tm /resync on the domain controller and later on the clients each of which had corrected the seven minutes difference. This resolved the problem with logon to Microsoft Online Services Sign In.

C++ Expression Templates

- by yCalleecharan

Hi, I currently use C for numerical computations. I've heard that using C++ Expression Templates is better for scientific computing. What are C++ Expression Templates in simple terms? Are there books around that discuss numerical methods/computations using C++ Expression Templates? In what way, C++ Expression Templates are better than using pure C? Thanks a lot

Checkbox in a Microsoft Report (rdlc) table

- by VanOrman

I'm a newcomer to using Microsoft Reporting (RDLC) and I'm trying to display a table with a checkbox inside of it. The data I have is stored in bit fashion: I want this data to display on the report like this: I can get the data to display in a normal table without issue, but when I do, the bit values are formatted as "true" or "false". Does anyone know of a way to do this? I have googled around and found reference to other people with the same issue but no solutions. I am using a Report Viewer control to display the report in an ASP.NET website written in C#.

Microsoft WPF Certification

- by Carlo

I'm seriously thinking about getting this certification. I already contacted Apex InfoTech and they gave me prices and everything. This is the description of the course. It lasts for 3 days, and the price is $1,495. What do you guys think, is it worth it? I've already been using WPF for a a bit more than a year, but I think a little Microsoft Certification badge would be good for my business card and resume. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Why isn't Expression Blend rendering my User Control? It's only showing XAML.

- by unforgiven3

I'm opening valid XAML within my VS2008 solution in Expression Blend 3 and it is only showing XAML when I try to open individual XAML files. My solution/projects all build and run correctly. When I go to View - Active Document View the Design View, Split View and XAML View options are all grayed out... which doesn't make much sense. I'm not much of a Blend user, but this has never happened before, and I'm coming up blank for how to fix it. Any ideas?

How to use Speech 2 Text in Microsoft Surface

- by Roflcoptr

I'd like to use some speech 2 text in my microsoft surface application. I saw that it is possible, but I don't really know where to start. Is there any framework/library available, or a code snippet, or a tutorial?? I don't even know exactly what i should google for ;) ===EDIT=== I read that it is necessary to use a grammar to recognize words. So if I want to proceed free text, is there a predefined grammar for the english language? Or is it a better choice to don't use speech2text but just audio files instead?

Microsoft Team Foundation Equivalent stack.

- by Nix

I am looking for a free alternative to TFS. What would be the best alternative stack(source control, bug tracking, project management/planning, wiki, automated builds (ci))? Keeping in mind that it would be nice if they all integrated well. For example, it would be nice to be able to link bugs to source control, and then be able to link to a project plan and then be able to automate building. I do not have issues with using Microsoft project to manage project planing. I know i would like to use these....: SVN TeamCity NUnit But i am struggling to find a good Wiki/Project Planning/Bug tracking, that would integrate well. Any questions let me know.

Microsoft Flight Simulator SDK Capabilities

- by Roger

Hello, I have not been able to find detailed documentation about the Microsoft Flight Simulator SDK, so I have a couple of questions regarding its capabilities. I am currently running FS2004(could buy FSX if needed) and would like to know if I could add moving or static boats through the SDK. Ideally, the boat's position would be controlled by an external program at runtime. Secondly, can i access the flight management system through the SDK? I would like to upload a custom flight path through an external program while the plane is flying. So why the plane would follow the original flight path I would like to be able to change it on the go. Thanks

How can I generate an Expression tree that queries an object with List<T> as a property?

- by David Robbins

Forgive my clumsy explanation, but I have a class that contains a List: public class Document { public int OwnerId { get; set; } public List<User> Users { get; set; } public Document() { } } public class User { public string UserName { get; set; } public string Department { get; set; } } Currently I use PredicateBuilder to perform dynmica queries on my objects. How can I turn the following LINQ statement into an Expression Tree: var predicate= PredicateBuilder.True<User>(); predicate= predicate.And<User>(user => user.Deparment == "HR"); var deptDocs = documents.AsQueryable() .Where(doc => doc.Users .AsQueryable().Count(predicate) > 0) .ToList(); In other words var deptDocs = documents.HasUserAttributes("Department", "HR").ToList();

Alternative to Microsoft Agent / Fix for color issue?

- by Rob P.

I've got an app that does Text-To-Speech; but I wanted to show an animated face/character to go with it. I found a tutorial on Microsoft Agent and I implemented it in my vb.net app. The problem is with the transparency color. Unless I run application in compatibility mode/256 colors, the characters will appear with a purplish-pink background image instead of a transparent back-color. But running the app in 256 colors the rest of the app looks awfully out of place. First - is there something that works similar to MS Agent I can use that would be more appropriate? Second - if I'm still MS Agent - can I get the transparent color to work correctly without limiting myself to 256 colors?

Dealing with Anti-Microsoft Trolls on The Internet

- by FlySwat

I'm an active member on Programming Reddit, but I'm one of the few C# advocates there. I could write up a 3 paragraph explanation of how to do something there, just to have it voted into the negatives because I used C# as an example. As a developer using the "Microsoft Stack", how do you handle the trolls and bigots in the online world? These are the kind of people who say things like "M$", or that Vista sucks without ever booting up. Do you just ignore the trolls?
