    It's saying there are too many characters so I'm going to try that Open Office doodah and see if that works... *fingers crossed peeps*

    Have just tried it in Excel 2010 and it works in that. Are you just highlighting the cells, pressing Ctrl+C, and then pressing Ctrl+V in the forum?

    I think I know how I'm going to be spending my sick day... I've never used "match/index/offset", completely self taught so I know there are probably big gaps! I've used VBA a few times to correct Macros and things but there must be some free online tutorials out there for me to play with.

    Thanks for the tips Helen :A xxx

    I'm self-taught, too so know how you feel ;) I don't use this very often as find it a bit confusing - vlookup is my friend :rotfl: I do have some examples of where I've used it before lurking about though so can help if you need it - just pm me

    Yep! Let's try it again... Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V...


    ETA, that didn't work again, do you think it's because my stupid computer has put it in compatability mode...?

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Morning all!

    Jakes mum - my loan provider has started doing that now I only have a few months left to pay. :oMust admit I was sucked in by it last time as I thought "ooh, I'll use it to pay CC off and book a holiday and do up the house and.." Fortunately I am wiser now and despite having a large CC debt, I intend to use the money that would've been spent on loan repayment to repay CC.

    I seem to have some teeny weeny shoots growing in my herb pots, not sure whether they're herbs or weeds that were lurking in the depths of the soil I used :p

    Baking challenge, hmmm...:think: *goes off to search for healthy baking recipes*

  • 10 more payments left till Debt Freedomness - I am trying to stay positive about this.

    Keep getitng invited to things & having to say no at the moment cos of the amount of debt repayments - I am 100% sure that I would rather have my debt gone than a night out at some club I probably wont even remember!

    I'm not under total house arrest though had 2 nights out this month &I have 3 out this month so what am I even moaning about!!!!!!!

    Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh anyway just thought I'd have a wee moan.

    Dxxx

    Haha! For some reason it's copying the font, text colour... all that jazz. Obviously, the forum has a fit when you try and paste it!

    Contrary to how it's looked thus far, I'm really not very good with Excel. I don't know what to suggest :S
