I'm fustrated because I know what I want to do and know it's possible, but can't figure out what the formula is - help! -- Thanks, Jennifer -- Thanks, Jennifer Tag: A highly profitable system?

    - Drop down list with external hyperlinks I would like to set up a data validation where the items in the drop-down list are external hyperlinks. If I put complete URLs in my list, they don't show up as active hyperlinks unless the user happens to double-click or F2 the cell to activate autocorrect and cause the link to become active. Is there any way to get an active hyperlink from a drop-down list? Furthermore, what I really like to be able to do is have the items in the list be true hyperlinks where the text is a hyperlinked label, not a full URL. That is probably not possible, but any help would be appreciated. TIA Tag: A highly profitable system? Tag: 783622

    - Given a VALUE in a table, ascertain RANGE in another table I have month values in cells A1:A12. I have a relative range name called Date whose refers to value is '=$A1'. So in row 7, Date refers to A7, and in row 11, Date refers to A11, etc. The values in A1:A12 are derived from a larger SourceTable on another sheet. Given Date (column A of the current row), I would also like to be able to define the cell in SourceTable, so that I can ascertain a range based on that cell. I hope that's clear, but I can explain further if required. Thanks in advance Paul Martin Melbourne, Australia Tag: A highly profitable system? Tag: 783617

    - 'spin buttons' & vbasic language i have posted this question B4, Norman Jones did reply, but i'm confused (not hard) Iâ??m having trouble with Normans explanation. Would it be too much to ask for a greater explanation? Iâ??m not sure where to substitute my data for that required by Vbasic. To refresh, My spin button is in sheet2 By clicking on the spin button (up) I want to copy a selected group of cells A1:Q12 from sheet1 and paste into sheet2 A5:Q17, when I spin (down) I want another group of cells to be copied. Ultimately Iâ??m looking to browse thru sheet1 by clicking the spin button up/dwn and read the selected group of cells (from sheet1) in sheet2. Iâ??m not even sure Iâ??m using the correct command (spin button) maybe thereâ??s a better way, Can you advise? -- Browny Tag: A highly profitable system? Tag: 783607

    - Problems with trendline equations I have several worksheets of data. I am plotting/trending the data on separate worksheets, and calculating the equations of exponential trendlines. I have as many as six trendlines per graph. As I add more worksheets of data and make more graphs, the graphs that I previously made become cluttered with several trendline equations. When I delete the extra trendline equations from a given graph, Excel shuts down. I am using Microsoft Office XP Standard for students and teachers version 2002. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. I mistakenly posted this question on the Office discussion groups earlier, I'm not intentionally multi-posting!

    - Can I use conditional formatting to scale a display value? I have a value in a cell, I would like to display the value directly with a text modifier if it is above a certain threshold or display a scaled value with a different text modifier if it is below a threshold. I use the value in a different calculation so I don't want to change the value of the cell, only the way it displays. Examples: If the value is time: .5 should read as "4 hours" while 2 should read as "2 days" If it was money: .5 should read as "50 cents" while 2 should read as "2 dollars" Thanks.

    - How to send Excel selection using Live Mail I have been using Outlook Express until this month, and have been sending information from a selected range in an Excel worksheet to a number of people every month. I don't want to send the entire (large) worksheet as an attachment, but my "Mail Recipient" function has apparently been disabled since installing Windows Live Mail. The only "mail" option I see remaining is to mail the entire document as an attachment, which really isn't an option. Since I send this information out to about 50 recipients each month, and each recipient has different data, it's been tedious enough already. But now, I'm looking for a way to send the data using Windows Live Mail without having to cut and paste all afternoon. If there is a way to efficiently do this using a Macro, that would be even better... Thanks, Tag: A highly profitable system? Tag: 783593
