Workbook_BeforePrint no Longer Working in Excel 2013

I have a spreadsheet containing VBA code which worked fine in Excel 2007 but does not run now that I've switched to Excel 2013 contained in Office 365 Home Professional. I'm calling Workbook_BeforePrint, from within the ThisWorkbook object, and it
appears that the call is never made. I've simplified my implementation of Workbook_BeforePrint(for the purposes of this question) as follows:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
MsgBox ("In Workbook_BeforePrint")
End Sub
When I do a File > Print > Show Print Preview, no message box appears.
This worked in Excel 2007. Functions I've written, located in Modules.MyFunctions, are being correctly called as spreadsheet cells are evaluated. I am not setting Application.EnableEvents to true or false anywhere. Does anyone know why
ThisWorkbook.Workbook_BeforePrint is not working in Excel 2013?
Thanks.

Oskar,
I appreciate your help on this. I am getting different results. First, I am getting some additional problems that I've never had with earlier versions of Excel (as I said, I'm running Excel 2013 now).
I have a workbook with several worksheets. With one of the sheets, any attempt to print or print preview fails. I do File > Print, and I see that the selected printer is my HP LaserJet M2727. This is the default printer. There is
no print preview, except for a small box that contains the words "Show Print Preview." When I click on that the small box is replaced with the words "Print preview is not available." On the left hand side, where the printer is identified, there
is a green check mark on the printer icon and below this is the link that states "Printer Properties." If I click on Printer Properties the green check mark changes to a red X and the word Ready is replaced with "Unable to Connect."
Without changing anything, other than selecting a different sheet within the same workbook, I get very different results and they do not match your results. Again I do a File Print and again I click in the small box that says "Show Print Preview."
This time a preview appears with NO message box. However, if I customize the Quick Access Toolbar by adding the "Print Preview Full Screen" button and then click this button without first clicking on File, then the message box appears.
So, are you getting the message box by clicking on File > Print, or are you clicking on the "Print Preview Full Screen" quick access toolbar button?
Thanks.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.
Summary :
We are using SharePoint 2010 Ent edition and users were able to checkout Pdf files similar to local drafts folder like any other office file without any problem when they used office 2010.
i.e
Unfortunately ever since their machines upgraded with office 2013 recently , this functionality completely stopped working for PDF files. This has now become a big problem for the users when it comes to check out and replace PDF files.
All browser plugins required for this functionality (i.e SharePoint OpenDocuments Class ) are all available and active. All document libraries are configured to Checkout is required for editing files. Browser version
used at the moment is IE9 (32 bit) version with windows 7.
Can anyone please help with this issue and any help to get away with this problem is much appreciated.

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that the PDF files cannot be checked out to local drafts folder after Office 2013 is installed.
Did this issue occur with Office files?
I recommend to check if the Office files can be checked out to local drafts folder with Office 2013.
And it is recommended to use Office 2010 with SharePoint 2010 for best practice.
Thanks,

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?
Thanks

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
and here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-excel/cycling-between-open-windows-using-ctrlf6-or/7314b632-7f48-44f1-8e96-7d7000ac86d8
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.

For %TaskSequenceID% no longer working in MDT 2013.

I've used the blogs by Michael Niehaus to get MDT 2010 and MDT 2012 LTI deployment wizard application selection profiles working.
I'm now running MDT 2013 and when following the instructions here:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/mniehaus/archive/2012/09/04/revisiting-lti-deployment-wizard-application-selection-profiles.aspx, the MDT Wizard Displays the error: "No task sequences are available (TaskSequences.xml does not exist, is empty, or is inaccessible)."

Updating the deployment share seems to have resolved the issue.

Surface Pro Driver injection no longer working under MDT 2013

Since upgrading to MDT 2013 we are experiencing an issue with deploying Windows 8.1 to our Surface Pros. The deployment seems to be ignoring driver group settings in CS.ini and it basically injects no drivers. We are following the guide Microsoft posed here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38826
So I'm confused as to where we are going wrong. Here is the section in question from CS.ini:
[ByModel]
Subsection=Model-%Model%
[Model-Surface with Windows 8 Pro]
OSDComputerName=TAB%SerialNumber%
DriverGroup001="Windows 8.1 x64\Microsoft\Surface Pro"
DriverSelectionProfile=Nothing
XResolution=1920
YResolution=1080
Incidentally the computer name is getting set so i know this block is working. Any idea why the drivers would get skipped over?

I've been deploying to Surface tablets just fine and deployed to a Surface 3 just a couple days ago without any issues, but I do follow Johan's "Total control" way of managing drivers. http://www.deploymentresearch.com/Research/tabid/62/EntryId/112/MDT-2013-Lite-Touch-Driver-Management.aspx
I'd recommend you go that way as well as you'll most likely have fewer issues. Depending on your situation you may also want to make use of the "ModelAliasExit" script and use Make variables or you can just follow the method above exactly as is.

Voice recognition no longer works in my 2013 Chevy Traverse since updating to 6.1.4 on my iPhone 5. Any ideas for me?

Voice recognition worked perfect in my new car until about a month ago. Thinking it was when I updated to 6.1.4. Now it never understands what I am saying when trying to call one of my contacts. If I say a number to call, it can understand that, but not when I say a name. Tried deleting and re-pairing. Didn't work. Tried pairing another iphone5 using same op system and had same problem.

Agreed. Same thing here. Just bought a late model Alpine INE-S920Hd and it is all kinds of broken. I think this is happening because Apple shifted the music and video. Totally buggy. Bluetooth refuses to work properly, too. A2dp keeps stealing the audio from Pandora in the Alpine interface. The ipod controls dont work at all.

Excel 2013 BeforeRightClick Event fails on Windows 8.1 Tablet (it's an Excel 2013 tablet touch screen interface bug)

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

Hello 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.

.xlsm File use from Excel 2013 64bit/Win7 64bit to Excel 2013 32bit/Win8.1 64bit - Component Removed (not API related)

Work Environment: Excel 2013 64bit/Win7 64bit
Home Environment: Excel 2013 32bit/Win8.1 64bit (1 desktop and 1 laptop)
I am developing an an .xlsm file at work (with Lists and a single form with controls linked to a worksheet ControlSource). It works and saves all day long just fine in my work environment. I save the file to either a USB drive (or DropBox - makes no difference)
and then open the file on my home computer. I can open the file the first time with no problem and with no error messages. But then when I try to save the file Excel 2013 32bit most often tells me that it has removed a component. But it doesn't tell which
component it has removed. After that, if I close the file and try to reopen it, it won't reopen. I get a series of error message: [1] file path errors (error 75) [2] Excel has stopped working errors. [3] Excel hasn't enough memory to complete the operation,
[4] Excel will close. So I click the close button on the last error message and Excel disappears. I say disappears, because its not really gone. Mind you, its not listed in the Task Manager at this point. But, if I then click the Windows Taskbar icon to start
Excel, Excel will sometimes automatically open up with the file that I was trying to open before, already up and running, i.e. I do not select the file to open it - it just appears. Other time Excel just repeats the series of error messages noted above.
The strange part is, once this file has been corrupted, I can still take it back to my work environment, fire it up on my work computer, and it works just fine. No error messages, no saving problems.
I have totally uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2013 (HUP Click to Run) on both my home computers and it makes no difference.
I can say though, this is driving me nuts. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
phillfri

I think I solved the issue.
Step 1: Moved all my code from the Worksheet_Open event to the Auto_Open Macro.
Result: File would open from inside Excel but when opening by clicking on the file in Windows explorer I would get the error msg "There was a problem sending a command to the program."
Step 2: Apply FixIt 20074. Note that to get this FixIt to work in Windows 8.1 you MUST save the FixIt file to your desktop and run it from there. If you follow the instructions on the FixIt page - download and run - you will get the error msg "This Fixit
does not apply because the computer does not have the expected software (Excel.exe)."
Excel 2013 definitely seems to have some bugs when starting a macro enabled file. I have seen other comments on the internet about the Excel workbook_open event actually failing to run all the VBA commands that are put into it.
Environments:
[1] Home: Microsoft HUP Click-n-Run Office Professional 2013; Windows 8.1, 64 bit; Excel 2013, 32 bit.
[2] Work: Enterprise Microsoft Office Professional 2013; Windows 7, 64 bit; Excel 2013, 64 bit.

Essbase Excel Add-in for Excel 2013

Hi There,
I recently upgrade from Excel 2010 to 2013, it seems Essbase Excel Add-in (1.1.2.2) has some issue with Excel 2013, does anybody experience this too, any advice on this?
Thanks

The excel add-in is not certified to work with Excel 2013 and a matter of fact, the only version of Smart View certified with it is 11.1.2..5 which just came out. The Essbase Add-in has not been updated in a shile and has been susetted by Oracle so there will be no new versions of it

Does Excel-Addin is supported by Excel 2013

Hello All,
We are in processing of upgrading the versions of Microsoft office from 2010 to 2013 for our users who are using Essbase Excel add-in. In 2010 the Excel Add-in is supported and working but my question is will it works for Excel 2013 also. Anyone installed and checked it. Please help me on this.
Regards,
naveen

I have not seen any updates to say it is supported, it looks like only Smart View 11.1.2.5 is supported with Office 2013 - https://blogs.oracle.com/proactivesupportEPM/entry/epm_obiee_certification_with_ms
Raise an SR if you want an official response.

Excel 2013 crashes every single time I click on Power Query Tab and try anything

I have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I installed Office 2013 Professional Plus 64 bit. I dont have any older versions of office. I downloaded and installed power query 64 bit. I start excel, click on power query tab and select any option, excel crashes
and closes, every single time.
The event viewer says "Excel is running into problems with "microsoft power query for excel" add-in If it keeps happening disable this add in and check for updates.
P1: 700160
P2: 15.0.4420.1017
Event ID: 300
Task Category : None
Level: Information
User: N/A
Keywords: Classic
Excruciatingly frustrating to have such an unintuitive message. What should I do to get power query working in excel 2013 and most importantly for excel to function ?

Hi,
It should be the latest version of Power Query. Make sure there is no old version of power Query installed in your computer.And what happens if you reinstall Power Query add-in or repair your office program?
Also Microsoft Power Query for Excel requires Internet Explorer 9 or greater.

Excel 2013 VBA Compatible with Excel 2010

Hello,
I am new at working with VBA and have a question regarding an excel sheet with a VBA macro inserted.
The sheet was created in Excel 2013 by another user, and my laptop runs Excel 2010. I get script errors when I run it, however on Excel 2013 it works fine.
My question is: Is there a way to make Excel 2010 work with Excel 2013 VBA scripts? Perhaps importing the library from Excel 2013 VBA to E-2010? Or perhaps a way to save a VBA script in E-2013 to be backwards compatible with E-2010?
Thank you all for your support.

Open the workbook.
Select Tools > References...
The references that are in use have their check box ticked. They are all at the top of the list. Do any of those start with MISSING?
