Excel 2013
Hallo,
mein Problem ist folgendes: Ich habe einen neuen Laptop mit 8.1 OS gekauft und habe nach der Testphase mit Office 365 mich für Office Student and Home 2013 gekauft. Sowohl mit Office 365 und jetzt 2013 funktioniert Excel nicht - nach formattieren einer Kolumne
für Zahlen, z.B. 2,47, und eingeben meiner Zahlen springt die Zahl um in ein Beispiel Zahl, zb. 63421.00. Was ist los? Warum akzeptiert Excel meine Zahlen?
Bitte um Hilfe.
VielenDank, VRWolter
Translation: I'm having problems with Excel 2013. I've bought a new laptop with 8.1 OS because of termination of support for XP (weep, weep). After the testphase with Office 365 I decided to buy Office Student and Home 2013. Both with Office 365 and now
with 2013 Excel doesn't work. After formatting a column for numbers and entering an amount, e.g. 2.47, and going on to the next row, the amount changes to a bizarre No. like 63421.00 and so on. So can anyone explain to me what's happeniing and why Excel doesn't
accept my entries.
I'd be grateful for help soonest.
Thanks in advance. V.R.-Wolter

Excel 2013 connect to a cube, and Power View concatenate the column name by default
Hi Guys,
Currently, we met a problem with excel services to connect to a cube, when we develope a Excel 2013 Powerview report, the data model column name is concatenate into terrible name by default. e.g. Dim TimeDate Date, Dim TimeTime HierachyYear -Month.
But when start up the data model with Powerpivot, everything gone well. We knew that it can be manual update the name as workaround, but we need to do it every time we create a new powerview with the data model.
Is that any other solution we can do with?
Please help.
JohnnyHi,
As this question is more related to PowerView Report, I suggest you can create a new post in the PowerView forum, you will get more helpful information from there.

Excel 2013 Data From Web not working with SharePoint 2013?
In Excel 2013, on the ribbon select the 'Data' tab and 'From Web' to import data from a web page. Navigate to a SharePoint 2013 site with a table on the home page and you will not see the table import arrow on the table. With SharePoint 2010 you would have.
Any suggestions on a workaround/fix?
One thing to note, in SharePoint 2013 be sure to disable the Minimum Download Strategy feature on the site or you will get script errors in the New Web Query dialog.
Also, I realize this may belong in an Office/Excel forum so I have posted it there also.
Thanks, FintanHi Fintan ,
According to your description, my understanding is that the Excel table import arrow disappears in the SharePoint 2013 page.
For your issue , I can reproduce your scenario in my SharePoint 2013 environment. It should be caused by the Excel Data connection from web page feature cannot identify the page layout which is
used by SharePoint 2013 . For a workaround, you export the HTML table using jQuery:

Powerpivot 2013 doesn't work on Excel 2013 / Office 365: data model issue
Hi guys
I recently upgraded my Office 2010 to Office 365, with Excel 2013. Before installing Office 365 I uninstalled Office 2010. I'm running Windows 8 64 bits.
I have the Powerpivot 2013 add-in, I can activate it without any issue. However when I click on "manage" on any spreadsheet (including new empty ones) I have an error "We
couldn't load the Data Model. This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.", followed by "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model".
I tried to repair the installation to no avail. I tried to launch excel in admin mode, nothing better.
This issue seems to be shared by some other people on this forum but
with no satisfactory answer so far.
I had a SQL server 2012 plugin installed previously which I uninstalled as well, but no change.
Would you think of something else?
ThanksHi lourson,
Someone work out this issue to stop the Tabular Model instance. Please take a look at the following blog:

How to run Excel 2013 in MDI rather than SDI
Greetings All,
I am interested in knowing how to make all my excel documents open in one window like the Excel 2010 did in Excel 2013. I understand that SDI is the new way of opening documents for the ease of looking at documents with multiple windows, however, there
are those of us who prefer it all in one window.
Please fill me in on how to set that up by default for my Excel.
Thank you.Windows button + R andtype "Excel /x" to run Excel in another instance.

Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+F6 still not working in Excel 2013?
I am using Windows 7 64-bit. I just switched to Office Home & Business 2013 (32-bit), and I discovered that ctrl+tab behavior in Excel 2013 is incredibly broken.
If you are using any other programs concurrently with Excel, then it makes switching tasks through ctrl+tab impossible. Switching workbooks in this way has unpredictable behavior: often, Excel will switch to a workbook that is hidden behind other windows
(fails to foreground the window correctly). Even when it appears to be switching appropriately between windows, the order of switching is wrong: rather than cycling through all windows, it seems to switch between workbooks somewhat randomly.
See similar issues discussed here: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/f288d91d-835a-48c4-a39c-738ca05002c4/ctrltab-and-ctrlf6-not-working-properly-in-excel-2013?forum=officeitpro

There does not appear to be any solution to this issue so far. I have attempted to repair my installation of Microsoft Office, but it did not correct the problem.Hi Dlup12345,
Based on my testes with local environment (Windows 8.1 and Excel 2013:15.0.4675.1000), the two Keyboard shortcuts worked as expected. In my view, this issue might be occur with Keyboard shortcuts, because you said the issue occurred intermittently. If we
only open multiple Excel files without other program, the shortcuts should worked fine. Please check if other program affected Excel shortcuts.
If you have any update, please feel free let us know.

Excel 2013 PowerPivot Error - "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model"
I'm attempting to use the PowerPivot add-on in Excel. When clicking 'Manage Data Model' or attempting to 'Load to data model,' I receive the error 'We couldn't load the Data Model. This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.',
followed by 'PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model.' This happens irrespective of data source type. I have Excel 2013 32-bit, PowerPivot 32-bit, running on Windows 7 OS 64-bit. I am not running an SSAS instance on my machine.
Any suggestions?Hi

Excel Merge Cells.vi throws an undefined error in Excel 2013?
Basically, I can't write text into an Excel spreadshoot using the Report Generation tools.
Using LabVIEW 2013 (SP1) I am writing to individual cells in an Excel (2013) template.
The error is coming from the Report Generation Toolkit>Excel Specific>Excel Easy Text.vi.>Excel Merge Cells.vi.
Inside of the "Excel Merge Cells.vi" is an "Invoke Node.Range". When the program hits this point, it throws out an undefined error.
My code has been running on multiple platforms in multiple programs with no problems using Office 2010.
NASA upgraded our Office Suit to 2013. I am now throwing an undefined error ( -2146827284).
I've got a service request in and have talked to an engineer. THey are looking at the problem. However, I thought I would throw it out here and see if anyone had seen this particular problem.
Bryan AlexanderProblem found, workaround implemented.
When you use the "New Report.vi", you have to wire in one of four choices for the state of the window. "Maximized", "Minimized", "Normal" and "No Change". If you use the "Excel Easy Text.vi" to insert data into an Excel 2013 Spreadsheet, it will generate an error if you opened the Excel file in "Minimized" mode. The other three states work fine. -
SBS 2011 GPO for changing the default save location for Word/Excel 2013 not working
So this is a strange one. I've got an SBS 2011 server that's the only domain controller in the org. I've created a GPO to change the default save location for Excel 2013 and Word 2013 using the Office 2013 ADMX files which were installed to the PolicyDefinitions
folder.
The GPO (U-Office2013 Default Save Location) only contains:
1. User Configuration - Microsoft Excel 2013/Excel Options/Save - Default file location - Enabled - Z:\
2. User Configuration - Microsoft Word 2013/Word Options/Advanced/File Locations - Default file location - Enabled - Z:\
The GPO is linked at the OU that contains my users for my SBS organization.
When I do a gpupdate /force on a windows 7 system with office2013 installed, and then run a gpresult/rsop, the policy appears to be applied successfully as it lists my GPO under the Applied GPOs list on the workstation:
Applied GPOs
Default Domain Policy dyndns.local AD (24), Sysvol (24)
U-Office2013 Default Save Location domain.local/SBSusers AD (6), Sysvol (6)
In the gpresult report, the applied settings appear under:
Administrative Templates
Extra Registry Settings
software\policies\microsoft\office\15.0\excel\options\defaultpath Z:\ U-Office2013 Default Save Location
software\policies\microsoft\office\15.0\word\options\doc-path Z:\ U-Office2013 Default Save Location
BUT, when I go to the workstation, and check office->options-Save-default file path, the path has not been changed to what the GPO is pushing.
The strange thing is that in my test environment running 2008R2 server and Win7 with Office 2013 and identical settings the default save location is applied and works as expected.
Any ideas?
I've already tried re-installing the ADMX templates and re-created the GPO's several times.
I should also note that other GPO's on the SBS2011 server such as the folder redirection GPO work as expected on the same windows 7 system. It just appears to be an issue with the default save location in office2013 and other Office 2013 related GPOs which
utilize the recently added ADMX template that don't seem to be working for me.
Thanks in advance.Hi Justin,
Thanks for your reply. I have tried several different user accounts (all have local admin privileges to the workstation) with the same issue. The default save path does not get applied from the GPO to any of the users i've tried. Here's the steps I took
per your suggestion:
1. log on as a user who has never logged onto the workstation before.
2. run gpupdate /force (entered y for yes when prompted to log off).
3. Log back in as the user and open Office and check the default save path. It has not been changed to match the GPO setting.
4. Check rsop to see if the policy was applied. Rsop states the gpo was applied successfully.
I have attached the gpsvc.log file from a the session described above. The GPO Guid in question is: {DC3C93EC-7C28-48E9-BA38-FCA1E275A207}. Its common name is: U-Word 2013 Default Save Location. It's only setting is:
Policies\Administrative Templates\Policy definitions(admx files retrieved from central store\Microsoft Word 2013\Word Options\Advanced\File Locations\Default File Location = Enabled\Documents = F:\

Excel 2013 hangs while trying to open a file from network share
Hi,
I am having issue opening excel file from a network share. it happens randomly, the file opens and hangs abruptly. Nothing happens after that ( we can only move the cursor), if we click on the excel sheet we get a beep sound. after i kill the excel process
and open it again ,it works fine.
Where did the member use the Excel file? Local disk, SharePoint, File server, or network shared disk?
Network shared file and sometime locally
Does the issue occur in the special file or every file?
it happens randomly and the whole excel freezes. i have to kill the excel session.
Which Office version is the file created? Excel 2013 or early? If it is XLS format, please try to convert to XLSX to test.
Network file server has office 2010 and the user is trying to open it in excel 2013
Does the file have some macros?
Yes, they have macros in some files
Does the issue occur recently? If it is, have you installed some programs or update before you encountered it?
it happened before too.
Do you get some error message when Excel crashed?
Yeah. Attaching the error message from event viewer. We get file corrupt errors and below too.
Please suggestHi Suren424,
Since your first image showed that "To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel." Please go to this path (Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Action Center\Problem Reports)
to check the detailed information, and you might upload the screenshot or info here.
Then, please try the following methods and check if they are helpful:
1. File --> Options --> Advanced --> uncheck "Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)"
2. Turn off "Protected View" --> (File –-> Options –-> Trust Center --> Protected View --> Uncheck all options
3. I notice that >>Network file server has office 2010 and the user is trying to open it in excel 2013 <<, it also might be caused by the Microsoft Office File Validation for Office 2010, please try to change setting in server with

Data Model damaged, Cannot connect to Access 2013 from within Excel 2013
Hello,
Recently I am not able to use PowerPivot for Excel 2013 and I cannot connect to my Access 2013 database tables from within Excel 2013. Whenever I try to click on a slicer in my Excel worksheet, it gives me the following error: "Excel was unable to load
a necessary component. This component might have been damaged or deleted. Reinstall the client software or data source driver software for your database."
I am using Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2013 on Windows 7, 64-bit version. I have tried reinstalling Microsoft SQL Compact Edition 2005 and reinstalling Office 2013. I have run out of ideas and am a loss what to do next ?
Can anyone help point in the right direction for a possible solution to this problem ???
Would appreciate all help.
Thank you.

Excel 2013 and Random Excessive Processor Utilization
Every now and then (about once per day), my Excel 2013 will randomly seize one of my 8 threads and max it out. My PC is quad-core and hyper-threaded, so it shows up in task manager as 8 cores. When Excel seizes, its UI still seems to function
properly... I can input data and format cells, etc. But even when my machine should be idle, I'll notice that my laptop fan is running at the maximum. When this happens, a quick look at task manager shows me that "excel.exe *32" is consuming
13% of my processor utilization (100% divided by 8).
If I close Excel, the process typically will quit, but every now and then I must forcibly end the process even after Excel has appeared to close (the UI almost always closes fine, but sometimes even after the UI has closed the fan still runs high and there
is still an excel.exe *32 process hanging out in my task list, consuming exactly 13% of the CPU until I end the process).
I notice this more often when editing network files via VPN, but every now and then it will happen with local files, too.
Perhaps this is an issue with multi-cores and memory locks? I'm tempted to permanently set the processor affinity for excel.exe to see if this alleviates the issue...
Do you have any suggestions?Seems that Excel crash issue only happen for a single user in your site, and you've tried some of troubleshoot steps already. Please continue to perform the following method which mention in the
KB2758592 o narrow down the issue:
Method 1: Verify/install the latest updates
Method 4: Check whether your antivirus software is up to date or is conflicting with Excel
Method 7: Test by using a new local or network profile
Method 9: Repair or reinstall your Office program

Excel 2013 crash - related to digital signature?
This is a cross-posting of a thread originally started in Microsoft Answers (Office- Excel) forum, advised to post in this forum by MS support engineer Mohan Suryanarayan (link to other forum: here).
I have a VB macro in file A (which otherwise contains only several Excel Tables with named ranges). My digital signature (for signing code) is attached to file A.
As the macro executes, the Open file dialog is called up so that the User can select a secondary file to open (file B or C).
Files B and C contain several sheets with formulas and Excel Tables, and also their own extensive VB macros. My digital signature is also attached to files B & C.
The remainder of the macro in file A simply executes an update of the Excel Tables in the secondary file, before saving & closing it.
I have been finding that during execution of the file A macro, Excel crashes and closes all open Excel files.
If I remove the digital signature from the secondary files then the macro in file A executes with no problem.
The macro was written in Excel 2007 and on a different laptop, with different digital signature, and used to have no problem at all. When a new laptop was purchased a new digital signature was obtained and placed into all of the files.
Execution of file A is a critical process - I need help with stopping the crash, while maintaining a digital signature in the secondary files (so that their own macros can execute).
Event Viewer error shows the following:
Faulting application name: EXCEL.EXE, version: 15.0.4667.1000, time stamp: 0x543d366c

Tom, all I can give you is relatively non-information. I haven't experienced that type of behavior even in Excel 2013 with digitally signed macros in multiple workbooks. But my digital signature is a commercial one from DigiCert, not
self-cert. I'm not even sure what piece of Excel or Office processes the digital signature (that is, whether it is mso.dll or not). But your whole process has more moving parts than most of mine involving multiple workbooks do - I quite often turn
off .EnableEvents when doing things like that just so event driven macros in the other workbook(s) do not execute.
Do the macros in the 'B files' have to execute during all of this processing in file A? If not, have you tried turning interrupts off:
Application.EnableEvents = False
before starting to work with the B-files? Maybe something in them, such as a Worksheet_Change() or other event triggered process is messing things up?
If you do use Application.EnableEvents=False, remember that you MUST re-enable that later in the code with Application.EnableEvents=True to get responses to things like button clicks, changes in a worksheet or other event driven processes
to run 'normally' again.
Have you looked at this discussion:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-excel/excel-2013-crashing-immediately-when-attempting-to/ea2ab100-5525-4a0d-a3cf-6977319f954f
Sounds very similar to yours - original signature created in 2007, and crashing in 2013. Some suggestions were made, but whether they fixed the issue or not is unknown: OP never came back and said "fixed it" or "didn't fix it".
I replied:
In answer, the secondary B files don't execute any part of their macros during the A file process, and I hadn't included an EnableEvents = False within the file A code. However, I have just tried it to check if it made any difference and unfortunately it didn't.
I had read the thread you gave a link to before posting, and also the sub threads given within that one, but didn't see anything I thought of immediate parallel other than an Excel 2013 crash.
The way I read the linked thread was that a User added a signature in Excel 2007 and when they tried to open the file Excel (2007?) crashes, although other people using Excel 2013 can open it (not clear whether it means others can open the one with
the 2007 signature or without it).
Anyway, the differences in my situation are that:
(1) my B-files were originally created in Excel 2007 on a different laptop to current and had their own signature attached. I maintain a 'stock' of B-file versions, some of which have the old signature and some the new. If I run the A-file macro
on one of the B-files with the old signature then it executes ok;
(2) I am able to open the B-files ok, no matter whether the signature in them derives from the old laptop with Excel 2007 or the new laptop with Excel 2013;
(3) the macros within the B-files execute ok (this includes any versions of the B-files which still have an old signature attached, by removing the old signature and replacing with the new and executing on the new laptop);
(4) the offending operation which triggers the crash (when the B-files have the new signature attached) is a Resize of the Excel Tables within the B-file. I understand that I may eventually have to find a workaround for this operation but initially
I want to sort out the signature issue (I'm reasonably sure the signature issue is not a red herring where the Resize is the 'real' problem).
Regards, TomHi,
According to your description, this issue occurred with some particular files that stored in SharePoint site. Did the user download the file to local disk to print?
Based on the event log >>Faulting module name: EXCEL.EXE<<, it does not show the root Faulting module. Thus, please try to follow this KB to do general troubleshooting:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2758592
Then, if you have used "printer status application", please go to Device settings -> Installable options -> Printer Status notification and select disable.
If this issue still exists, we may need to collect the App crash dump file:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/dd996900.aspx
You can try to analyze dump by yourself if you would like to:

I have developed customized table context menus in an Excel 2013 workbook on my Laptop. They work just fine on my laptop and my work desktop. But when I try to run them on my tablet PC the Worksheet_BeforeRightClick event in Excel 2013 never fires. Other
worksheet events appear to work okay. I have fully reinstalled Office 2013 Pro and that does not make any difference.
I have read other comments regarding this same problem going back to 2013, but have never seen Microsoft respond to this issue. Nor have I been able to find a resolution. Has anyone else run into this and found a solution?
Additional Discoveries: Testing on my tablet shows that adding one custom CommandBarButton to either the top or the bottom of the default "List Range Popup" context menu causes the Worksheet_BeforeRightClick event to fail. The basic context
menu commands still show up, but the default dropdown button for additional context menu commands disappears. The event is perhaps firing, but any customized code for the context menu is not being handled properly by Excel. This does appear to be a bug and
not a question of coding error. Perhaps someone else with a tablet PC running WIndows 8.1 could test this.
Based on comments
here this bug was introduced in Excel 2013 because others find the problem does not exist when using Excel 2010 on a tablet PC. Note that all the commenters on the linked thread that are experiencing this problem are using tablet PCs.
Update 3-13-15: I stand corrected. The Worksheet_BeforeRightClick does work on Excel 2013 Windows 8.1 tablets. I happen to own an Asus VivoTab Note 8, which comes with a Wacom stylus. If I use the Wacom sylus to right click on an Excel 2013 worksheet cell,
the Worksheet_BeforeRightClick event fires and modified context menu code runs just fine. But the code will not run if one uses their finger to right click a worksheet cell. This explains why this problem only shows up on tablet PCs. So the "bug"
introduced in Excel 2013 is a general user touch screen interface bug and not an Excel events programming bug.
Update 3-21-15: Switched to a Toshiba Protege laptop with touch screen. Same issue with finger touch screen interface on the Toshiba touch screen as with the Asus VivoTab touch screen.
Laptop: Toshiba Protege (with touch screen), Windows 8.1 64bit and MSOffice 2013 Pro 32bit
Tablet: Asus VivoTab Note 8, Windows 8.1 32bit and MSOffice 2013 Pro 32 bit
Desktop: Generic, Windows 7 64bit and MSOffice 2013 Pro 64bit
phillfriHello Phil,
Command bars were deprecated and shouldn't be used any longer. Instead, you need to use the Fluent UI (aka Ribbon UI) instead. You can read more about the new UI in the following series of articles in MSDN:
Customizing Context Menus in Office 2010
Customizing the 2007 Office Fluent Ribbon for Developers (Part 1 of 3)
Customizing the 2007 Office Fluent Ribbon for Developers (Part 2 of 3)
Customizing the 2007 Office Fluent Ribbon for Developers (Part 3 of 3)
As a workaround you can add a custom control to the context
menu with the getEnabled or getVisible callback which will be invoked before the context menu is shown.
