MacBook Pro :: How To Use Tables On Word When Click On Them Open Excel To Put Formulas And Text
Jun 4, 2014
I write reports and I use office for mac because at work I need to read the reports I write at home with macbook. I use tables on microsoft word that are connected to excel. When I click on them the excel opens to may introduce formulas and text. If I close excel the table I modified on excell lays on word with the rest of the text of the report. My doubt is when I add cells to the table on excel....I can't visualize them on word...
I'm lucky enough to be in Excel 2007 and have infront of me 3 columns of data.
As an example, in the first column is the colour of a product, 2nd = the price, 3rd column = quantity in stock.
Now I know that I can use an array formula to come up with a way of finding out the number of red products that are �2 and have 2 items in stock - unfortunately I am not sure how to do this!
After upgrading to Lion, I can no longer see the text in my word documents or excel worksheets. I know the text is there because it appears in the formula bar - it just isn't visible in the cells. I can also see the text if I quickview the excel files. In the word documents, all I can see are the pictures/images...no text. Weird. I have the latest version of Office 2008 and Lion OS.Â
I have been sent a job application form in pdf and have been asked to fill in the relevant boxes and return electronically. The easy solution would be to print, hand write and then scan. However, I just wanted to know if there is a clever way to convert the application form into a word.doc and then insert text and edit? I have looked at various free downloads however, they don't seem to be able to retain the table format of the original document. Does anyone have experience/knowledge of doing this.
Since I updated the latest software on 2/2/12, Office For Mac doesn't work correctly. I can not open Excel or Word documents from Office. I cannot save a newly created document. However, I can open an exsisting document by going to the hard drive and double clicking the document I need. I can't save changes I make to the document once opened.Â
I hate MS Word, but I find that I can't get rid of it just yet. I love Pages, but I need the thesaurus capabilities of word. I need to be able to right click on a word and have synonyms come up in that very menu, no opening dictionary or another pop-up.
I've recently switched from Word for Windows to Word for Mac (2008), and I'm having trouble figuring out how to "tab over" text in tables in the Mac version. In the Windows version, Ctrl + TAB works, but I haven't figured out the equivalent command/key combination for the Mac version.
Setting tab stops in a table cell is a breeze, but figuring out how to use these stops has proven to be more of a challenge for me.
I start Microsoft Entourage, the software opens at least 17 windows and sometimes more.When I click on the upper section of a window in Safari, or Word, the window folds to the dock and when I click on a word, the entire word is selected.
I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.7 i am working on Word 2008 for Mac, version 12.0.1 (080305).
My problem, i created one text box in a document, somehow 2 more appeared. I made the mistake of thinking that to delete the extra text boxes, i simply highlight them and delete them. Silly stupid me, nothing that simple exists and i have wasted an hour trying to figure it out. The help button does squat, barely gives you any info on a text box much less trying to delete it. Does anyone know how to delete a text box in a word document?
I just migrated from Lion on an old MacBook series 2007 to a MacBook Air. Yesterday, I opened up a grading file in Excel 2011, entered grades, saved the file (NOT Save As - just Save) handed back the assignments to my students - and then went to reopen the file later, and all of my changes were gone. I made more changes, Saved, just opened the file again, and they aren't there. To experiment, I opened the file just now, wrote in a silly comment on the top line, saved, reopened without quitting excel - and the changes aren't there.
A temporary work-around is that I can do a Save As every time I make changes, but that's ridiculous - I'm often updating a file and need the changes to be there. I just tried this with Word as well and I'm having the same problem - some Saved changes are there, some are not.
Does the Macboo Air come with anything software like Microsoft word, excel or powerpoint presentation? Or will I need to buy something, if so how much will this cost?
All of a sudden Word and Excel won't open any more. I just get a message that says "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I have a MacBook. Last week I bought Microsoft Office for Mac. I would like to open documents sent in Word to be opened in Word. But my mac converts them to Pages.
Info: MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.4), Microsoft Office for Mac
I start my Macbook Pro Retina Late-13' Microsoft excel and word always open, I thought this was to do with the login items but when I go to it only chrome helper is ticked and Excel and Word are not there. Is there a option in word/excel to turn this feature off?Â
When I start my computer up, programs such as excel, word and powerpoint and calender will open up automatically. One day it will open up powerpoint and excel and other days just word and excel, its very random. I tried to find the setting to stop this and cannot
Why can't I attach a file to an email unless I export it to Word or Excel?Â
If I create a file in Pages, Numbers, or Keynote and save it to my documents, I can't attach that file to an email. It says the file cannot be attached. If I go back to the file and export to Word or Excel, It will attach to the email. How can I fix this?
Now that Apple have taken over our house with ipads, iphones, ipods etc , I decided to give my Dell laptop to the kids and bought a 13inch Macbook Pro and have installed Office 2011Â
The problem I have is with my memory stick Kingston DT Locker which I also use on Windows XP and Windows 7 - I cannot open or save Excel (xls and xlsx) and Word files (doc and docx) from/to the drive Â
I can copy files to the Mac, update them and then copy back to the drive Â
I can open pdf and jpeg files  It is formatted to FAT32Â
I turned on the computer today most of the documents that I have in Qord for Macc (2008) have much of the text invidible. I tried converting to PDF and the words are simply not their. Some text, such as the ToC and words in tables, remains, but main body text is gone.Â
