I have prepared an Excel Dashboard which goes from column A to column N. And when I open the file, my Dashboard fits completely on my screen and I can view everything on the Dashboard. But when I send my file to someone else, they have their own view. Like one can see column till R and other can see till column K only. This is making my Dashboard unfit to share because it's not perfectly aligned for view to everyone. Is there a way I can lock this so that everyone using this Dashboard can see the same cell (Rows and Columns) I see?
Thanks

Fisrt i would like to state that i don't know much about vba other than what i pick up from the internet and forums like this one. I have a problem and i'm hoping some on this forum will come to my rescue.
I'm trying to create a simple equipment maintenance system in excel. I do not want to use the vba user form Because i do not have much knowledge of vba coding.I have two sheets, Sheet1 (called Form) and sheet2 (called Data). So i have craeted an on sheet form on the left of the sheet1 (Form) which i would like to stay visible at all times So to achieve this i picked up a method from the internet of creating a scrollable list (Displaying all data entries from sheet1 (Form), i have also picked up vba code to save and reflect form entries on Sheet1 (Form) on sheet 2, so far so good. Coming to the problem, i would like to make and delete entries directly on to the scrollable list which would also reflect on the data sheet. Another problem i would like to know if possible is how to make the maximum value of the scrollable can increase automatically as data rows increase.
Please HELP!
I am trying to Get & Transform data from a web API.
When I go to the URL through a browser I can view the data.
I copy the URL. Open Excel 365, click get data ...from web and paste the URL.
It looks like Excel is recognizing that it is a Json, because power query has Json.Document.....
However, it is not letting me view the actual data, each line only has "Record"
When I try Close & Load it loads [Record] into the rows in column A.
Any ideas on what is going on?
Kind Regards,
Dom
That's typically how data gets loaded in Power Query. Record's or Lists can be expanded to get the data inside them.
There are 2 things that you will want to based on what you want.
Click on any one record to see the data in just that one Record
Click on the Expand button on the column header to see data of all the Records in their respective rows. Please check out this answer
If you're not able to figure it out, please post an image.
Its a bit of a weird one but I have a linked table within my database. The table is an excel table with identical field headings and data types and until recently has worked fine however now when I traverse the linked table in Access the data will change every other move, changing from the original row to show data in the row below. Iv had a script output the values of the top row and it displays normally however I cant append this linked table into anything and I assume its this glitch.
Im stumped and would love any ideas as to how this happened and how it can be fixed.
This is an unusual post as I've never quite heard of this type issue. To sanity check things I would suggest that you delete your excel table from the navigation pane in Access - and then relink it.
So then perhaps I didn't understand, and I am wondering what is meant in your first post by: "The table is an excel table with identical field headings and data types"
A link to excel is a qualified "table" so to speak. You should be able to double click on it within Access, it opens in data sheet view and you see all the data but you can't write to it. You can't write back into the excel.
You can query it....
You can append the query results of the excel into a true Access table.
I am in the process of upgrading an excel spreadsheet we use to manage timecards with for employees every week, we use OCR to process them. Currently our big spreadsheet, its a multi-tabbed spreadsheet where every employee in a given department can see everyone else's time that gets logged.
What I am in the process of doing is making individual spreadsheets inside folders for each employee to access, these folders will be locked so employees of each department cant go in and see other peoples timecards. One master spreadsheet with the use of index/match will pull the data into the master spreadsheet.
I have one page completed for one employee but I have about 20+ more employees to go and it took 6 hours to do one page, is there a way that I can change the spreadsheet connection of one individual page instead of the entire workbook?
here is an illustration:
i have hundreds of cells on one tab connected to this external spreadsheet
With the use of the "Edit Links" prompt I am aware that I can change data sources, but I want to edit the connection per tab not the entire workbook
i want to have one tab pulling from one data source, and the next tab pulling from another data source. I want to accomplish this without going into each cell and updating the link and spending a 40 hour work week on something so small.
How can I do this?
thanks!
using replace all, [ctrl + h] for windows, you can change any value within formulas on the entire page
works great
Yahoo Finance has a fancy feature that allows you to download a CSV file with some information about stocks you choose. Using this format
http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=STOCK1+STOCK2&f=INFO_NEEDED
&f= accepts parameters according to this table. For example, to get the minimum price of titles UCG.MI and ISP.MI I use:
http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=UCG.MI+ISP.MI&f=g
1) The problem is that I get
66550
24240
While respectively the min prices are 6,6550 and 2,4240 (commas/dots are missing..). Why? How can I get the "right" values?
2) How can I import these values into Excel (and having the cells updated every X minutes re-grabbing the values from the CSV online source)? I tried with "Data"-"From web" but didn't work..
I tried what you said and for it works perfecty fine in my case.
1) I think this is the way the cells are formatted in your case - Perhaps make sure they are numbers rather than general or something else.
2) There are refresh controls under the cells that have this date. Just go into a cell you defined the Web Query for and you will see the Refresh All button highlighted. You can use that to manually update the entire query or individual cells, but if you select the drop down go to 'Connection Properties' and a whole menu with option will appear (Background Refresh, Refresh every xx minutes', etc.).
Let me know if that's what you need?
