I am using Excel 2010 and want to manage a large Excel files.
So I would like to open a new Excel Instance when opening every file from my Windows Explorer. At the point all files are opened in the same Excel Instance.
Any assistance is kindly appreciated.
John.

]
Go to a folder in Windows Explorer, then Tools -> Folder Options, then the File Types tab. For each of XLSM, XLSB, XLSX, etcetera, select it, then click Advanced, select Open in the Actions list, then click Edit.
Adjust the settings to:
Application used to perform action: - "C:...\EXCEL.EXE" "%1"
Use DDE - Checked
DDE Message *LEAVE BLANK*
Application - Excel
Topic - System
You need to launch excel and then load the file, so it will be in another instance.

files from the google.docs generally open in view mode. But after some additions in link, we can change the link to direct download.
I have given a docs link below . How can I turn it into a download link?
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxoaWprbG1uMjN8Z3g6MjY2NWMxNjM1ZWYxNWNmYQ
You can try this.
Click on print Icon on the top-left, it will pop up printing controls on the left, then if you press ctrl+s , you can save it as PDF format. And also, this is not a good question for this site:)

How to Link to Files at Google Docs for Direct Download
...Google doesn't tell you this, as far as I know - so, if you want to link to a file at Google Docs for direct download you can use the following address scheme:
https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=YourIndividualID
You can copy your individual file id from within the "Share..."-dialogue. Here you also need to put the share settings to "public" or to "anyone with the link"
a HTML example for this link to a pdf-file:
<a href="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B2wAunwURQNsNWU1NjcyOGMtYWI0Ni00MzQ5LTg3ZTAtOTc5ZjUwMmZiZDMy">

After I edit the existed CSV file, click save will prompt a message dialog "some feature in your workbook might be lost if you save it as CSV (Comma delimited)". Then I click "Save". After that when I click "Close" to close the CSV, prompt message dialog again "Want to save your changes to 'sample.csv' ". Why I have to save twice? How to solve it? Thanks
Why I have to save twice? That unfortunately is an inbuilt feature which AFAIK you cannot change.
Even I find that annoying. In your scenario if you click on No the 2nd time you get the popup, it will not create any problems because your file is already saved. Feel free to close that dialog box. There is no setting that you can change to avoid this behavior.
Btw, this behavior can be replicated in a normal workbook as well.
Create a new workbook. Type anything in Sheet1
Save it as a Csv. The first prompt that you will get is
The 2nd prompt that you will get it
Now close the file without making any changes. You will still get this prompt
This annoying feature cannot be turned off. You have to live with it. You can simply click on Don't Save or close the dialog box. Don't worry, your file is already saved as a CSV :)

I am new to VBA programing and want to practice on my mac. However, it appears that the bar that was on the top of my excel document where I start/run the program by pressing a play button has disappeared. Now I can't run my programs anymore simply because the bar I used before to start the program is gone. Would deeply appreciate help with getting that toolbar up again. Alternatively, what is the command for running a vba program on mac? On pc it's F9, F5. Anything similar?
Get to the Macro Editor:
Tools -> Macro -> Visual Basic Editor
From here, while this is active:
View --> Toolbars --> Standard

I'm trying to access the Properties window for an Excel (2007, in this case) worksheet, using the Properties button on the Developer tab, as described here. The reason I want to get at the Properties window is to set properties such as the object's name, for use in VBA scripts that address it.
The Properties window comes up, but it's blank, with no identification of the object I'm looking at at the top, and no properties listed. Why is this, and how do I get around it?
It turns out that the reason for this was that I had the associated VBA project password-protected. When I opened up the VBA project and entered the password when prompted, the Properties window started working again.

I would like to edit GoogleDocs documents in UltraEdit or Notepad++.
Reason being a few features missing from the current GoogleDocs editor.
Can this be done ?
My use-case:
I log my work in a logfile.txt
UltraEdit and other native editors are lightning fast and have column editing, excellent search result display, macros and other power user features, not available in GDocs yet.
I would like to keep working in UltraEdit until those features are available, but at the same time have the document synced in the background to GDocs.
So, Nocs doesn't cut if for me yet (until it has the same featureset and speed of ex. UltraEdit),
however the sync stuff you have implemented is interesting, if you could somehow add this as a plugin to UltraEdit and other editors. At least some of them have a plugin architecture.
Another "feature" of GDocs that has currently stopped me from using this approach, is the 512kB document size limit.
I don't think you can do it "in place" as it were.
You can export the doc from gdocs, edit, and reimport. in the menu at the top of the Google Doc: File -> Download File As -> Text, edit away in your favourite editor, then File -> Upload New Version (you can do this for spreahsheets anyway, not sure if this is available for every format, you might need to create a new doc and delete the old one)
You have to export it as a rich text document, then edit it in notepad++, then import it back to google docs.
Don't expect this question to live long as it's unrelated to programming.
A bit of a shameless plug here, but if you want simple, Notepad-like functionality that integrates with Google Docs, you can check my project called Nocs.
