Page Numbers problem and print odd/even pages

Posted: 10 Apr 2005 12:03 AM PDT

Yeah, Kevin. I ran the search for "odd" and unfortunately Works does not
support the printing of just odd or just even pages. Thanks for the help on
the search word. I was searching "odd or even" and got nothing. Now I can
stop banging my head against the wall.

And yes Darcus, it did help. Now I can insert page numbers on all the
pages. Thanks.

Use landscape layout, set margins to .5 all the way around
the page, set .5 for headers and footers and then test
print. Make sure the columns are not set too wide, size
them to just fit the data.

Microsoft Word Labels question

Good plan Ken, but I would perhaps add one step. If the OP has problems
pasting the html formatted list of numbers into Word, I would use Paste
Special and paste the list as plain text.

open comma delimited text file

Are you trying to open a Text file in a blank Spreadsheet or does the
spreadsheet alreayd have any information in it.

If its a blank Spreadsheet use File->Open and Open the text file.
else
the method suggested my Michael will be better for you. (Copy paste the
content to the spreadsheet from the text file)

Aldus sprak Dr. Indera op 10-4-2005 12:02:

No, you are not. I hate the new tasklauncher too. Works 7's tasklauncher
could at least show lists and even with my own templates in it. This
option has been taken away from us. The programmers do as they like
taking away choices from us as if we were small children.

You may write them of course, but don't hope they will listen. How many
times did we ask for restoration of the formatting of numbers in mail
merge? They did not listen. We asked for the restoration of
autohyphenation, it did not happen. We asked for easy format, we did not
get it back.

The solution is to make a folder on the desktop that contains shortcuts
to the programs you use and to your templates. Then you can forget about
the tasklauncher and will never see the monstrosity again.

Hi Kevin,
Top Stuff!

I have not used it as yet, will try this arvo.

I was even using "ISERROR" rather than ISERR
way off! :)

Thankee Sir.

| Hi Rodney,
|
| The formula is restricted by general Works cell size limitations but
| I do not believe that this should present a general problem to you.
|
| Excel? Fortunately. I know little about that program too :-)
|
| Excel's FIND uses base (position) of 1 whereas Works' FIND uses 0.
|
| STRING is not a valid Excel function, instead use function FIXED
|
| FIXED(number,dp,ignore commas).
|
| Perhaps, this formula works (oops!) for you,
|
| =IF(ISERR(FIND((","&FIXED(A2,0,TRUE)&","),(","&B2& ","),1)),"Absent","Present")

How to open an e-mailed xl document with Microsoft Works Suite 200

Posted: 05 Apr 2005 02:37 PM PDT

WORKS can "sort of" open an Excel file, but it cannot show
the file in all the levels. You can get a free Excel file
viewer that will allow you to see and print the file.

| Hi KC,
|
| Works includes a spreadsheet program that will open xl
files.
|
| First, save the xl document to a folder on your hard
drive.
|
| Open Works Spreadsheet program, click File on it's menu
bar, click Open. In
| the Open dialog popup, click the down arrow for Files of
type:, select Excel
| SS (*.xl*), for Look in: navigate to where you saved the
xl document and
| click on it, should cause it to display in File Name:,
click Open.

Works / Excel

Posted: 31 Mar 2005 07:38 AM PST

If you still have Works on the old PC, the better route is to open the WKS file in Works
there, then do a File, Save As to Excel format. That will transfer the formulas, although
some tweaking may be required.

If you instead do the File, Save As to CSV format as the previous poster suggested, you
will get data only
