DDE problem between Word and Excel
For years I have been using Word programs (Office 2000 series) to access Excel name and address data files to produce letters, mailing labels, etc. Now, when executing a Word merge program, I am all of a sudden receiving the message, "Waiting for Microsoft Excel to Accept DDE Commands." The computer then hangs up, as if in a loop. This is true for all my Word merge programs. Nor can I crea...

Conditinal Formatting
Excel 2003 I have a data list using A1 through H1245. Row 1 contains the field headers, with column H called Code.

I am using it as a training (and research) item, wanting my charges to figure out ho...

I tried holding down the option key but that gives funky...

I was "intimidated" by the first one below. It was almost three lines on my screeen. If I don't need to grasp EOMONTH(), I prefer n...
