    Excel - Can you sort columns in a-z order?

    Ramzi, my apologies! You can actually do it from there, by going into sort options & choosing sort from left to right! oops!

    Excel - Can you sort columns in a-z order?

    Thanks Carrr, I'm checking it out now. Ramzi, I realise that sort was there, but it only sorts rows, not columns. Thank you anyway.

    Excel - Can you sort columns in a-z order?

    Hi, Just wondering if anyone knew of a quick way to sort columns in Excel. I have column headings in row 1, and I want to sort the data in alphabetical order. The long-winded way would be to copy, paste special values & transpose, then sort, then copy, paste special values transpose back...

    Word - how can I get rid of a 'blurry' effect when I write?

    Hi, I was messing around with Word the other day, with WOrd Art and all the effects you can assign to your text (eg. flashing text, 'blurry' effects etc.) Somehow I have set it to automatically have this effect on every worksheet I open, and I can't remember what menu I need to go in to change...

    Number of Years, Months & Days from Start Date

    xlbo, I see what you're saying - I'd like to assume that it is 1 month between any 1 date in one month and the same date in the following month, regardless of the month being 28, 29, 30 or 31 days. Mmmmm...I can see this becoming tricky. You would think there would be a function that would...

    Number of Years, Months & Days from Start Date

    Uberskunk, Sorry, I don't think I explained too well what I needed. I'm after the difference between 2 dates, but (see above) the difference between 5 July 2002 and 25 September 2002 will be "2 months 20 days", NOT "2 months" and NOT "81 days" I hope this makes it...

    Zathras, It will be 2 months 20 days.

    Number of Years, Months & Days from Start Date

    No, I have looked at this function, but that gives me the total difference in months. For example, if the start date is 14/04/02 and today is 15/04/02 (which it is!) I need the answer to be: 1 year ( this one I have worked out correctly) 0 months (this is the one I have trouble with) and 1...

    Number of Years, Months & Days from Start Date

    Hi, I need to get a function to produce years, months and days from a given Start Date up till Today. Here is what I've come up with so far - the years and days arre working fine: Years =YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR($A2) Days...

    Getting a ProgressBar to work!

    Illini, Thanks for this - since I'm not too clued up on VBA, could you tell me where I can put this code amongst what I already have? Here's what I have behind the button: Private Sub Command39_Click() Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Set db = CurrentDb Set rs =...
