Excel issue Having a problem with Excel. I know, we are not supposed to be using Excel for other chores. But the best tool for the job is the one we actually use and like. I am now organized with Excel. But it attacks like nothing I have ever seen before. I put pictures in comments, close...

Unfortunately it says this setting isn't available in versions of Microsoft Office newer than 2013. That would make it so easy, but MS wants us to go back to a 10 year old program? I have been checking a lot of tips and hints on trust. One says there is a setting in the browser to solve this...

I did some searching and was reminded it isn't Windows at all, but the dreaded Microsoft Office Trust. I ran into this nightmare several years ago with an earlier version of Word. Gave up then. But I would like to get this issue solved if anyone has advice.

I came across a neat menu program for the Mac that was also released for Windows. Rather old program, but works well. I can make some shortcuts, place in a folder, then have 7 stack make a standalone menu item. I got the idea of making a grid in Word, then I can place these menu items in the...

I'm with you, I dearly love this wonderful program. Granted, it could some improvements (tables more like Word), and much easier interface. As I surf the web, I am always finding tips and hints on just about everything. I just copy and paste into a notebook. I save links in there too...

I know it is possible to turn drives online or off in Disk Management. I also am aware it is not advisible as Windows can get confused. When I boot up with an SSD, all hard drives are offline. I was wondering why this is, and if it would be wise to turn them online. Would also like everyone's...

There is just me and my computer so I don't use passwords. I have discovered my Asus motherboard has a screen just for drives that I can boot from. At boot up, if I press and release F8, this screen will appear and wait for me to select a drive. Doesn't include the Bios Screen, just the...

That is just above my head. My older computer stops at boot on the bios screen while booting and I can select a drive from that. My new computer stops with select an operating system which I don't even have. I would like to make my new computer like my old. That is, without pressing any keys...

This is so far above my head I might have to get a ladder to understand :) I do like the Hasleo Win to Go, all of my Sandisk portable SSD drives are made with that. I only have one OS on each drive. Tried more than one many years ago, gave that up and with these wonderful SSD portables, I...

I have a custom built computer with internal nvme. I also have several portable ssd external Windows To Go (Hasleo) drives, which work well. So I really don't need a boot manager, I can simply plug and unplug which drive I want to use. Except for the internal nvme of course. And that is my...

But isn't VBA unsfe? Some relatives aren't too experienced in computers. Also, if javasacript were turned off on their's it would course have to be turned on for this sheet/ workbook.

I use Excel for lot more than number crunching. It keeps track of my ancestry information, links, etc. I am not sure how to explain what I am looking for, it is show/ hide a row(s). For example, let's say 3x Great- Grandpa Osmund is listed on his own worksheet, with the names of his sons and...

There is only one virtual software for me, the great VmWare Workstation. I just had a W11 custom built for my new physical machine. Kept my old W10 custom built, and both connect to my router by physical cable. 32 gigs ram, Asus mobo, Nvidia graphics I don't have a network, just have tabs in...

I have been having very good luck with my virtual W11 machines, until now. At first every once in awhile I would lose connection (the network icon would turn into a globe). Did some searches and created a 2nd network adapter which worked. But my latest W11 virtual won't connect at all. I had...

When making virtual machines in VmWare Workstation, I started adding a 2nd virtual hard drive, works good. If I wanted to just try out the latest and greatest Windows releases, I couldn't use the normak VM way I don't think as there is already an os on Drive 0. So I thought of using something...
