Excel activex call changes between Office 2000 and Office XP. How does one manage that?

I have several Active X calls from within a VI. One in particular is
the Excel Cell Value property node in Office 2000. MS has decided to
call it Excel Cell Value2 in Office XP.
I have built and exe on a machine with Office 2000 and can run the code
on a machine with Office XP, but I can not build on the machine with
Office XP. I can also run a VI with that call
on the Office XP box, but if I mass compile the VI I get the broken arrow.
I guess I am confuesed as to why it can run but not compile. If the
ActiveX call is not there for the compile why is it there for the run?
If I can expect this does it work in reverse where I
build on an Office XP box and run on a Office 2000 box?

These problems you are experiencing do stem from the ActiveX changes between Excel versions.  When you mass compile LabVIEW checks to see if everything is linked correctly, including ActiveX portions of your code.  Since there are slight changes the LabVIEW compiler detects something is wrong, but cannot isolate the problem.  You might need to force a recompile of that VI.  Check out this link.

    I am having the same issue too. It looks like many more people are having it as well. I called Apple Support a few times, but they use their standard naiive response: "we have never heard about this issue".
    It is an issue of DHCP implementation on the Apple OS.  My windows PCs and Printer are not having these issues.. 

  • Report generation toolkit problem with office 2000 and office XP

    Hello, I am having a problem with running my vi after it is compiled with application builder. The dev machine is an XP box and the targer is windows 2000. I included _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi and _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from the office 2000 section of the install cd (for the report toolkit) in the compile but did not include those files for XP. When I run the application on the target machine (2000), the reporting functions call Excel just fine and the program does not come up with any errors. The program however, is not loading the approprate template and inserting the approprate data. Did I leave some neccessary files out of the compile? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Acer,
    The recommended procedure in your case is to install Microsoft Office 2000 on the development machine and then reinstall the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. When the toolkit is installed, it will check for the current version of Office and install the corresponding VIs to support it. The VIs include different ActiveX calls according to the version of Office. Therefore it is not enough to change the support manually without having the correct version of Office installed first.
    However, I would recommend that you just try to run your executable on a machine that has Office 2000 installed. The difference in the ActiveX API for Office XP and 2000 is not that significant, so your application might work perfectly on an Office 2000 machine. If you try to run the executable on a machine with Office 97 installed I'm willing to bet my right arm that you will experience errors.
    Good luck Acer!

  • I pulled the bookmarks html file off of my computer after it crashed, and am trying to get my old bookmarks into firefox. How does one do that?

    When my computer crashed, we managed to recover a bunch of the files and information from it. One of the files we pulled was the bookmarks.html from the firefox folder. The computer was running on Vista when it crashed, and I now have it running 7 Professional. The file is recorded as a Chrome html file on the new computer, and when I click on it, it pulls up a basic html page within Chrome or firefox that has links to the firefox website (kind of like a webpage version of the bookmarks folder from the toolbar, but without any of the bookmark adding capabilities). I'd like to get my old bookmarks loaded into firefox. Help?

    Firefox hasn't used the '''bookmarks.html''' file for storing bookmarks since the Firefox 2 versions, in 2008. Later versions use '''places.sqlite''' for bookmarks and history. What you have is the default file that Firefox uses on new installations and new Profiles, which has like 6 bookmarks.
    If you still have access to that old hard drive, see this for help: <br />

  • Having changed Mail in Lion to 'Classic Layout', how does one change back?

    Hi.
    When I upgraded to Lion I didn't like the new layout of Mail, so I changed it back to the Snow Leopard-like 'Classic' layout.
    I fancy giving the new layout another go now, so I've un-ticked Classic Layout in Preferences>Viewing, but it still doesn't look like it did when I first installed Lion, which had the two-line preview messages in a vertical column to the left of what I've always called the 'preview pane'.
    What I have now is the two-line list above the preview pane.
    I can find loads of tutorials on how to change the Lion Mail appearance back to Snow Leopard, but I can't find anything to do the reverse and arrange everything in vertical columns again. Nothing seems to leap out at me in Mail Preferences, and I'm a bit lost.
    Can anyone please advise? I'm sure it is a dead simple thing to do, but I can't work it out...

    Cancel that...
    I went back to Classic, and then came back out of it, and I had the vertical column arrangement again.
    It was definitely horizontal the first time I un-ticked Classic, honest!

  • Once and for all, how does one stop losing music on IPOD TOUCH? WHAT settings do you people use to stop losing music? Does anybody have any help with this? Does any body have any help at all? APPLE offers no help!!!!!!!!!

    I constantly loss my music!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I constantly loss my music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help to stop this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    First of all, is the music only disappearing from your iPod, or from your iTunes Library as well?
    From your other thread, I gather you swap between Manually Managing and Syncing. This is a bad idea, it will lead to confusion on your part about what should be on the iPod. You'll make a choice that iTunes later overrides - because you've told it to. Choose one method or the other, not both.
    Peresonally, I recommend using the iTunes Sync process. Using Sync will not prevent you from deciding what's on your iPod. You will still have a free and full choice in that. The Sync process will however, make it far easier for you to put everything back onto your iPod in the event that you need to Restore your iPod, or when you replace this iPod with a newer one.
    Back to your issue though. Is the music, missing from your iPod, still in your Library?

  • Office 2000 vs Office XP

    Does anybody know of away to get around the problem between Office 2000 and Office XP when using Active X and switching between Operating Systems.
    I find when I develop a VI on XP then try to run it on a 2000 machine I get errors.
    I fix it to run on 2000, now it won't run on XP.
    Is there some tool or patch some where that will get around this problem?
    Keith

    Hi Keith,
    Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid the ActiveX differences between Office versions.  Since Office 2000 and Office XP have different interfaces to certain functions through ActiveX, LabVIEW VIs will break if they are configured for one interface and moved to another.  The only way I can think of to avoid this problem would be to dynamically call your VIs that make ActiveX calls, and call a different VI depending on which version of Office is running on the machine.
    Good luck,

  • Color changes between Safari 3x and 4x

    Does anyone have any info about color handling changes in 4.0.2?
    I have a friend who upgraded from Safari 3x to Safari 4.0.2 and now the color is off on all her web pages. All the color on all parts of the page are desaturated. It certainly looks like a color profile problem but I can't seem to find any info about what might have changed between Safari 3x and 4.0.2.
    I put an old copy of Safari on her machine, it is 2.0.4, and the colors are completely normal in it.
    The machine in question is a macbook running 10.4.11.
    Thank you.

    I have the same problem!!
    Apple has apparently decided that unless a color profile is assigned, it will make images in its new browser look like garbage. Meanwhile they still look great on Firefox.
    I'm an artist and this is terrible. It means that to please Apple, I need to go resave and reupload all my images with an sRGB profile assigned.
    In Firefox, the images look identical to how they were saved originally in Photoshop, without a profile. Yet they look washed out and terrible in Safari.
    Gee, thanks Apple!!

  • What's the difference between SharePoint 2013 and Office 365 Team Sites?

    Hi there,
    What are the differences between SharePoint 2013 and Office 365 Team Sites?
    If I would like to develop a professional corporate website with SharePoint technology (because the company allready uses Office 365), do you recommend using SharePoint 2013 (in the cloud) or Office 365 Team Sites? And why?
    Thank you very much!

    You cannot make SPO Team Sites anonymous-enabled, therefor they're a moot point for a public website.
    While slightly out of date, take a look at this:

  • Separate between windows 2000 and xp

    Hi!,
    In Zenworks 3.2 I want to filter between Windows 2000 and Windows xp

    Okay Thanks for your reply.
    But what about nal objects? For example Microsoft patches. You don't want Xp
    patches to be rolled out on 2000 machines. So filtering on file existence is
    the only way?? for example C:\windows\explorer.exe for xp and
    C:\winnt\explorer.exe for 2000.

  • RoboHelp Office 2000 and 9.1

    Just found my copy of RoboHelp Office 2000 and 9.1 and would like to install them on my new computer and get back to using the program.
    Two questions:
    1. Which of the above versions is the newest?  I realize that they are both quite old but can't remember which is the latest.
    2. Can either version run on Windows 7?  I am using Windows Word 2003.
    Thanks for any input.
    Peg

    Hi Peg.
    RH Office 2000 came out sometime in 1999 whilst I believe that RH 9.1 came up afterwards. However neither would support Office 2003 or Windows 7. If you weren't using any Word features maybe you could get one version installed and running but if you had any issues, you'd be on your own as far as Adobe Support is concerned. If you can afford it, I'd strongly recommend you buy the latest version RH8. It is miles better than either of the versions you currently have.
