    - Copy Paste Wierdness Hello -- I have a Office Excel 2003 SP3. Here is the situation ... I have a Workbook that has many Worksheets that have some pretty intense formulas. I open a second instance of Excel with a blank Workbook. I highlight the whole worksheet and hit copy. I then Paste over on the new Blank Workbook ... and low and behold ... it is just copying the values (no formulas). If I perform the exact same test in the same instance of Excel it works fine. The funny thing is I am unable to reproduce this on other machines. Does anybody have any ideas of how this could be happening? Thanks, --Rich Tag: where can I see my question and answer?

    - Excel slow to save to network drive I am trying to troubleshoot a machine that is running XP Pro and Office 2003. It is extremely slow to save files to a network drive with Excel. Word is somewhat slow, but Excel is really bad. For example, it takes almost 60 seconds to save a 175K Excel file. The server is in the same building. I took a laptop down and plugged into the same ethernet hub and opened and saved the same file. It took only 3-4 seconds. The network in that office is somewhat slow, but still, there must be a problem with the machine taking 60 seconds to save. The problem doesn't seem to occur with local files. What could be causing this? Thanks, Chris Tag: where can I see my question and answer? Yesterday I ask a question Tag: 783498

    - Revealing the related pivot data The situation is this... Some of the people viewing my reports can click on the individual cells/data value and it opens a new sheet revealing the related pivot data (or it directs them to my pivot table). That said, others who do the same only get the underlying formula displayed. It's almost like there is a feature that needs to be turned on or maybe a patch that needs to be installed. Can anyone tell me why some people can click to display the data and others can't? Appreciate the help. Ken Tag: where can I see my question and answer? Yesterday I ask a question Tag: 783438

    - Validate Text for Pivot Table Filter Hello, I have source data for a pivot table that can contain one or more values "alpha", "beta", "gamma", "delta" (ex: cell can contain "alpha", "alpha" "beta", "delta" "gamma", and so on). I tried a formula to display "yes" if the source cell contained "alpha" and "no" otherwise as follows: =if(isnumber(search("alpha",a1)),"yes","no") Unfortunately, this returns "yes" in my destination cell whether the source cell contains "alpha" or not. I found this formula in another post on filtering pivot tables but can see that I am doing something wrong. I just don't know what. I tried "istext" in place of "isnumber" with the same result, a "yes" is returned regardless of whether "alpha" is in the source cell.
