File Left Open in Excel 2010 but not in Excel 2013 but Why?
Hi All,
After running the four lines of code below, if I try to open the 'MyFile.XLSX' in the windows Explorer I get a message saying 'File in use by 'another user'. However if I try to reference the file in Excel via VBA it is clearly not accessible (and
shouldn't be). So why after copying all worksheets to another workbook is it still ready only?
Is there a way of ensuring the file is writeable once again via VBA (since the object can not be referenced any longer?)
Thanks in advance of any enlightenment
Steve
Dim pmWkBk as Workbook
Set pmWkBk = GetObject(Workbooks("MyFile.XLSX"))
pmWkBk.Sheets.Move After:=Workbooks("MyOtherFile.XLSX").Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set pmWkBk = Nothing

So, 'the original workbook no longer exists in the Excel object model'. I don't think that's possible.
It is 100% possible because once all the sheets of a workbook have been MOVED to anther workbook the original workbook doest;t exist. try it yourself...code
below was recorded and the last line added.
Cheers
Sub Macro1()
' Macro1 Macro
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Users\Win7\Desktop\Hello.xlsx"
Sheets("Hello").Select
Sheets("Hello").Move Before:=Workbooks("Goodbye.xlsx").Sheets(1)
'then the bit you say is impossible - this is where you would get a subscript out of range error
Workbooks("Hello").Close
End Sub

Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

OpenXML Excel file, works in Excel 2007, OpenOffice, etc but not in Excel 2010
Hi everyone,
I have a problem. I host a free website, sharing source code and ideas with other developers. One of my projects is a very simple C# class, which generates an Excel 2007 .xlsx file. All source code is provided, along with a demo showing
how to use it, free of charge. No registration required.
http://www.mikesknowledgebase.com/pages/CSharp/ExportToExcel.htm
The .xlsx files that this class generates are fine, they open in Excel 2007 & OpenOffice, I've run the OpenXmlValidator
on the files, and there are no reported problems.
However, If I open the file in Excel 2010 (with SP1), it opens, but if I go to the Print or Print Preview screen, Excel 2010 crashes.
Googling around, I've found that many many users have experienced problems with HP print drivers, I followed some suggestions, such as turning off multi-threading in Excel, but it makes no difference. I tried setting the default printer as
the "Microsoft XPS Document Writer", but it made no difference.
Here is a copy of the Excel file that my demo produces (and which crashes Excel 2010). Can someone tell me why it opens okay, but then crashes Excel 2010 ?
http://www.MikesKnowledgeBase.com/SampleCode/Sample.xlsx
I can get around the problem by loading this file in Excel 2010, saving it as an ".xls" file (!!) and re-loading that... but it kinda defeats the purpose.
And, more generally, why does Excel 2007, OpenOffice and the OpenXmlValidator consider it to be in the correct format, but it crashes Excel 2010 ? I'm surprised that Excel 2010 doesn't at least attempt to report some kind of problem with the Excel
file, rather than bombing out.
MikeIt seems Workbook.XML doesn't have all the information needed by Excel for pagination while prepare for print.
Using your sample code, here is the XML generated for Workbook.XML part within Open XML package :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<x:workbook xmlns:x="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main">
<x:sheets>
<x:sheet name="Drivers" sheetId="1" r:id="rId1" xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships" />
<x:sheet name="Vehicles" sheetId="2" r:id="rId2" xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships" />
<x:sheet name="Vehicle owners" sheetId="3" r:id="rId3" xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships" />
</x:sheets>
</x:workbook>
Replace above content with below XML and print should work fine:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<workbook xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main" xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships">
<fileVersion appName="xl" lastEdited="5" lowestEdited="5" rupBuild="9303"/>
<workbookPr defaultThemeVersion="124226"/>
<bookViews>
<workbookView xWindow="510" yWindow="510" windowWidth="4455" windowHeight="2520"/>
</bookViews>
<sheets>
<sheet name="Drivers" sheetId="1" r:id="rId1"/>
<sheet name="Vehicles" sheetId="2" r:id="rId2"/>
<sheet name="Vehicle owners" sheetId="3" r:id="rId3"/>
</sheets>
<calcPr calcId="0"/>
</workbook>
The change is not with data but few elements which define the view for Excel. The required code change can be found using Open XML SDK tool code-reflect.

Excel 2010 inplace not showing File tab
Wondering if anyone else having an Excel 2010 inplace issue not showing the File ("Backstage") tab to allow Save or Save As operations? Noticed others searched SAP xSearch help with similar Excel 2010 search terms but nothing relevant returned...
We're on ERP 6.04, NW 7.01sp5, SAPGUI 7.20sp2 with Excel 2010 running on XP sp3.
Thanks in advance (and full points) for any resolution ideas or issue confirmations before opening an OSS ticket :>>

Is the "File"-Button now working in your environment or not?
(We don't use SAPGui 7.10 and EHP ... but we will upgrade in a few month)
Note 1408098 looks like there is no solution for the crash-issue, right?
The only solution/workaround is to put the icons into the quickmenu-bar.

BW 3.5 / GUI 7.20 / Excel 2010 : RRMX not working properly
Hi,
We are here working on BW 3.5 with GUI 7.20 FEP 2.
BEx 3.5 is being used on Office 2010.
When we run a workbook from SAP GUI (user menu), then Excel 2010 is opening but:
- Thereu2019s no automatic connection to BW as it should.
- The workbook doesn't show up.
- We have the following message in the SAP GUI status bar: "Please install Excel as a viewer".
Same thing happens when we run RRMX alone.
Any idea on how to correct that bug would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
JohnHi,
This is an installation issue. reinstall both the Excel 2010 and SAP GUI7.20 with latest patch along with .net component also.
For an intermediate solution, just copy the file "BExAnalyzer.xla" (normally located in "C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI") to the path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\SAP Shared\BW".
Or follow the steps given in the below link
http://www.sytecpa.org/software/BWInstructions/Installing%20the%20SAP%20BEx%20Analyzer%20Excel%20Add-In.pdf
Also check the below note for more info.

I created an Excel template which includes VB and macros as an EXCEL.XLTM template file (I used a template file to keep users from overwriting the sample template file), but I have noticed that when users save the template, Excel 2010 defaults to saving
the new file as a XLSX file (removing all the macros).
I know you can set Excel 2010 to always save as a certain format, but I really would prefer not forcing all Excel files to be macro enabled for the user
Is there a way to default the Save type to XLSM for this template only? Like some code that I could put in that when the users saves, it saves as a macro enabled XLSM type only for this template file?
My users aren't exactly Excel savvy, so I wanted to make it as simple as possible for them.
Thanks!
Alan EdwardsHi Alan,
>> Is there a way to default the Save type to XLSM for this template only? Like some code that I could put in that when the users saves, it saves as a macro enabled XLSM type only for this template file?
In my option, you could achieve this by adding Application.GetSaveAsFilename Method to the workbook BeforeSave event. Some key code like below:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim FileNameVal As String
If SaveAsUI Then
FileNameVal = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(, "Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm), *.xlsm")
Cancel = True
If FileNameVal = "False" Then 'User pressed cancel
Exit Sub
End If
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=FileNameVal & ".xlsm", FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
But there is a limitation of this workaround, in this workaround, the save as will only support the macro enabled type, other save as types like "xlsx" will be ignored.
For more information about Application.GetSaveAsFilename Method (Excel), you could turn to the link below:

PDFMaker in Excel 2010 does not appear after installing Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard
I installed Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard for a user here at work on her computer with Windows XP and Office 2010 installed. She wanted the feature and/or plug-in that allows her to "Save as Adobe PDF" in Excel 2010 and then able to add/remove pages from a spreadsheet in Excel 2010 like this:
Which brings it to this screen:
We saw this feature with someone who has Acrobat X Standard. Is this feature available in Acrobat 9? If so, how do we enable it? We updated Acrobat 9 and nothing showed up.The PDFMaker function of Acrobat 9 is not compatible with Office 2010: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html
You can use Acrobat 9 to create PDF files though by choosing File > Print within Excel and selecting the Adobe PDF printer.
Wish I had better news for you!

Excel File [.xlsx] of more than 5 MB - Not applying Excel Display Template
Hi Team,
We have an issue in SharePoint 2013 Search Results for Excel files having extension .xlsx format. Some files which are having more than 5 MB size are not applying Excel display template. Even we are not getting Excel icon beside the Search result of this
item.
For all other excel files like [All sizes of .xls format and files less than 5 MB of .xlsx format] Excel display template is applying.
Can anyone help me on this. Do we have any issues/limitations on file size for Search Results.
Thanks, Dinesh
Dinesh Pulugundla, Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist.Hi Dinesh,
Yes,SharePoint Search crawl component downloads metadata and content from a document until it reaches the maximum document size. For Excel documents, the maximum document size is 3MB. And you can change the limit for the maximum document size, but it does
not affect Excel documents.

Repeating headers in PDF report but not in Excel format?
Is it possible to have repeating headers on PDF output format, but not if the report output is Excel ?
If the report is simple, i.e. it only contains a single table, then you can add some header rows at the top of the table.
+-----------------------+
| Page Header 1 | }
+-----------------------+ }
| Page Header 2 | }
+-----------------------+ }
| Page Header 3 | }
+-----------------------+ }--Repeat as header row at
| <Blanks> | } the top of each page

Situation:
PowerPivot 2010 Model based on 10 linked tables (this tables are generated and refreshed as needed by SQL 2012 MDS Excel-AddIn)
Unfortunately Excel MDS AddIn changes sometimes the tablename (case: MDS Add-In Filter changed, MDS Server changed). So after Change of tablename we have to fix the powerpivot link to this Excel tables in powerpivot to get powerpivot refresh working again
Problem:
With Excel 2010 PowerPivot this was possible without big Problems. As Long as table has identical structure one can Change/Switch the table in powerpivot Windows > Ribbon "Linked" Table > DropDown "Linked Table X" or during update
via Dialog "Errors in Linked Table"
After upgrading the solution to Excel 2013 this is not possible any more without loosing any column- or measure calcs defined for this table! :( Every time you Change the assigned Excel table for an existing linked powerpivot table..you
get following Dialog:
"You are changing the source of X to Excel table Y. Changing the source will remove all formatting, measures, KPIs, hierarchies, and other Settings applied to the table. Are you sure you want to to continute?"
Does anyone found a Workaround for persisting existing calc of linked tables when changing the sourcetable (to another Excel table with same structure)??
Dear MS, this is IMHO really a step backwards and blocks the migration of our existing Excel 2010 PowerPivot Solution? Should i create a connect entry for that?!
Version-Info:
2010 Version: 11.0.3000.0 (PP Ribbon>Settings)
2013 Version: 11.0.2809.81 (Product version displayed for dll c:\program files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Addins\PowerPivot excel Add-In\PowerPivotExcelClientAddIn.dll)There is a very similar issue discussed here where i tried to show the different behavior in terms of linked tables in Excel/PowerPivot 2010 vs 2013
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/8fd927f7-30fd-49b7-809c-cb1414955638/linked-tables-excel-2013-vs-2010-difference?forum=sqlkjpowerpivotforexcel
maybe it helps you to understand the issue
I assume that MDS creates a new table every time you refresh it thereby breaking the link to PowerPivot
in case you only have calculated measure you may created a separate, independent linked table and define all calculated measures there
this way they at least would not get removed

hi everyone,
Is there any microsoft article which provide information regarding this issue.
thank you in advance
regards
arun avHi arun av,
According to your description, you opened the previous excel file in new version of Excel. Did you get the dialogue box as shown in the figure when close the file?
Ideally, the issue is caused when the first time you open a file that was last saved in a previous version of Excel, the file is completely recalculated. For more information about Excel fully recalculating workbooks when they are opened for the first time,
you can refer to following links:

I am a novice, but it's hard to do anything wrong using iWeb. I tried sharing a movie made in iMovie to iWeb on my .mac account. The movie only plays on a Mac (or PC) using Firefox. Both IE (what a surprise! joke...) and Safari will not load the movie. It's 8.2 MB, orig size about 3.2 GB. It's understandable that the movie might not load on IE, but Safari - same Mac used to create the site. Note: it does load in Safari, if I am simultaneously running Firefox and have the page with the movie open and loaded, otherwise it just hangs and shows the big Q for Quicktime, but no movie... Any ideas. PS. When I send the updated site to a folder on my Mac, it works fine, but when I post it to .mac, no go.
