I wanted to create an excel file that calculates the days diference between a fixed date and today's date and display that value in a PPT.
1st Problem: If I change my date on the computer, the Today Cell does not change by itself; I tried to make a Vba code for Update but it didn't work
2nd Problem: the PPt value change automatically But If I put the PPt in Presentation Mode I lose the connection, and I have to update the connection again.
Note: If there is a way to do all the calculation in the PPt it will be Correct
Thank you

I have a bit of an annoying issues with an excel workbook around the default number format which I have been struggling to resolve.
In my spreadsheet the default number format looks to have been set to ‘Time’ (by default) so that even when I change the format and interest a new sheet the defaults is ‘Time’. This happen even after changing and restarting.
Is there a way to reset the Number formatting back for a workbook back to ‘General’?
ps I am using Excel 2013.
Thanks
I have an Excel document that is used by everyone in the office. When someone is in it the rest use a read only or have to wait to update. I have created a new workbook that references the working copy. Eg cell contents are =path[document]Sheet!cell is there a way to automatically view changes as they are input on the working copy. This would be a read only solution but ideally a right up to date copy of the working workbook. A solution through excel or VBA button click would be ideal. Can you help. I have tried connections but it crashes and only updates on a close and save from another user. When I have both docs open on my computer updates are instant.
I have a workbook which contains many formulas. Up until a few days ago whenever source data was manually updated all the calculated values in cells containing formulas also automatically refreshed. In order to get calculated values to now refresh we have to click CTRL-S to save the sheet - then all the values update. Does anyone is there is a workbook setting that controls whether calculated values refresh in real-time when source value cells change or only upon saving?
File>Options>Formulas>Workbook Calculation
Set to Automatic. See screenshot below.
If it's already set to Automatic, then you may have some VBA messing this up somewhere.
Hi I am a noob in VBA and I'm having a hard time getting this one solved. I have made a userform that has 4 textboxes that is inputed by dates. The problem is everytime i retrieve the said data from my worksheet the value/code of the date is displayed, not the date. For example if I add the date 12/21/2016, and then try to call it. It will display 42544. I'm using Excel 2013. I don't have the date picker thing however I used a customized one but still got the same result.
As mentioned, try to use .Text instead of .Value. If it doesn't help, be sure that the Cell with the date is formatted as a date. Also make sure that you declare your variables as Date(Dim abc As Date) in the code.
I know I can input an excel sheet into a ppt. But is it possible to allow a value in an earlier slide to be used within the ppt?
For example. Slide 3 has "expenses" but if you change some value on that page some cell value changes to reflect the new value on slide 3.
Try looking this page up. You can pick the appropriate office version. The proper approach would be using VBA.
