    MS Excel 2003 - Adjust Row Height Limit

    Many thanks all! After looking into this further it certainly appears this is not a problem I can solve through a simple configuration (and I'm def not going to edit the source code) so I've abandoned all hope and will just put a disclaimer with the SS explaining the problem. Cheers, Uncle Svenno

    MS Excel 2003 - Adjust Row Height Limit

    Hello, It appears Microsoft have set a limit to the row height. As in, if I format the cells to wrap the row height will adjust to a point. Then, it looks like I'd have to find the particular cell which exceeds that row height and adjust the row manually. Ultimately, I'd like to do this...

    How to

    Heya, I have an MS Word document which I have linked to an html page via the following HTML code: <a href="S:\blah\...\toClient v3.0.doc" target="_blank"> The MS Word document (toClient v3.0.doc) has a VBA Form which loads on the "Document_Open()" event. This works fine if the user saves the...

    Trouble exporting to formatted file

    Hi Mr Payback, The number of columns doesn't change but the number of rows does. I think I could make an estimate and suggest it would never exceed 60 rows. Are you suggesting I ask Excel to read the data from the "additional worksheet" from within Excel and paste it into the formatted cells...

    Trouble exporting to formatted file

    Hi PHV, Thanks for your suggestion, I've had a look at it and it seems to dislike the set up I have. I have 5 back end .mdb files which sit on a shared server. The front end is an .mde file which sits locally on the users PC. I would need to pull the data from a query within the .mde file...

    Trouble pasting into a sorted column.

    Sorry Ken, I can't continue on this one, the data is sensitive and I'm a little under the pump so I don't really have time to re-create the spreadsheet. If I have time later I'll come back to it. Once again, I really appreciate your help. Take care, Uncle Svenno

    Speed up queries

    Hi PHV, Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. Unfortunately I'm a little slow on the uptake sometimes, do you mean by this that it doesn't really matter either way? I am making an mde file which to my understanding compiles the code. So if I create an SQL query as a String...

    Speed up queries

    Hello All, Can anyone tell me if a query will execute quicker on linked tables on a seperate server if the queries are generated as "Queries" via the objects panel in the Access Database Window or as a String within the VBA code? If so what is the difference? Thanks, Uncle Svenno
