    Arrays

    Ladies and Gentlemen This is a follow on from my last question, but unlike the last post this gets to the heart of the matter.

    Arrays

    Ladies and Gentlemen I have an array of letters, after having set up data on an Excel spreadsheet. Copied the array into VBA as normal and have been able to count the number of times each letter occurs and display this on the spreadsheet. The data looks like this: Letter...

    Numbers in a one dimensional array

    Ladies and Gents Another problem involving settling a bet. My friend has come up with a scheme for beating a roulette wheel (I tell him every 6 months or so he is mad, he still comes up with ideas!).

    format date in Excel to output in Word mail merge doc

    Ladies and gentlemen This seems fairly trivial and I apologize for the question if that is the case, but my extensive searching of Micrsoft and other sites has failed to find an answer (there may indeed not be one). I am doing a mail merge with data from Excel and a Word letter. I would like to...

    Printing a Word document restarts my computer.

    Can you scan the document with your anti virus software. If not try putting document on to a floppy (if you have one of those) or a cd and scan the floppy or cd with the antivirus software. Regards David

    VB6 - Cut data from Excel paste to Access

    I think this may solve your problem but am unsure as to how quick it is. If you search: convert+VBA+program+to+VB in Dogpile Item 41 on the resulting list is: Covert Database Data Between Serveral Format - visual basic, vb, vbscript Note: the misspelling of Several is correct. This will get...
