This VBA macro saves an Excel worksheet as a PDF. It sets and sorts the data, creates a temporary sheet with headers, formats and aligns the data, and adjusts column widths. The macro defines the PDF path, deletes any existing file, sets page orientation and footer, exports the sheet to PDF, deletes the temporary sheet, and shows a message with the PDF path. Modify to your needs if you find it useful.

Hiermit möchte ich mal ein Kränzchen winden: Seit den 2000er Jahren benutze ich die freie Office-Suite. (Vor dem Fork war es ) Privat, wie geschäftlich. Die Schriftartenersetzung ermöglicht mir Vorlagen, die platformübergreifend funktionieren. Der mächtige Text-Importer von Calc begeistert mich im Gegensatz von immer wieder aufs Neue. Vielen Dank, liebe Opensource-Gemeinde, für die tolle Software!

(1/2) I have been following the work of @stevensanderson and David Kum for a few years now, and I am excited to see the release of their new book 🥳- Extending Excel with Python and R 🚀.

The book focuses on the common conjunction and collaboration between data scientists and Excel users. This includes scaling and automating #Excel tasks with #RStats and #Python and core data science applications such as data wrangling, working with APIs, data visualization, and modeling.

I built (and, more importantly, released!) a thing!

It's very early stages but it's actually functional.

It's a Vue.js plugin for building Excel Add-ins. Such broad appeal, I know.

https://github.com/demsullivan/vue-excel

This project is actually a byproduct of another big thing I'm working on.

Currently, I use YNAB for budgeting, but I've been putting sustained effort into getting my data out of the cloud and self-hosting everything.

I started researching options for budgeting software, and I really couldn't find anything I liked or that felt like it had enough features.

I decided, then, to just whip up something in Excel... which led me to the discovery of Office.js and the ability to build Add-ins for Excel using web tech.

Thus, vue-excel was born.

I may eventually release my budgeting tool for Excel, when it's feeling a little more mature and stable. Stay tuned... ❤️

Have discovered that if you type "he wagged a finger" into Word, it suggests a possible word choice error, and that you might have meant "waged".

If you swap it to "she wagged a finger", the grammar check passes it with no notes.

Using the plugins in , can now catalog text content from Pages, Apple Numbers, Apple Keynote, Microsoft , and Microsoft files.

That is pretty cool when you need to search your for a certain spreadsheet...

Mal was ohne Rollenspielbezug: Kennst sich hier jemand sehr gut mit aus?

Wenn ich aus einem anderen Fenster zurück zu Excel wechsle, wählt es nicht die Zelle aus, auf die ich klicke, sondern die, die ich zuletzt aktiviert hatte.
Bei Libre Office ist das anders - da lande ich immer dort, wo ich hinklicke. So möchte ich das auch gerne in Excel.

Ich hab mich halb tot gesucht in den Einstellungen, Google hilft mir gar nicht, und Copillot möchte mir irgendeinen dubiosen Code unterjubeln.

Can any experts offer advice on simple ways to make it send an email if a particular condition is met?

A quick search suggests needing to code something in Visual Basic, which is well out of my field of experience.

Dobra. W Was jedyna nadzieja, bo mnie coś trafi powiem szczerze. Nie umiem excela, chyba że takie proste rzeczy jak w gimnazjum. Tego nie ogarniam, a zostałem poproszony o pomoc. Ktoś wie jak się takie rzeczy robi? Bo podejrzewam, że tu trzeba machnąć przestawną, ale za żadne skarby świata nie wiem jak to działa.

I was invited by LinkedIn to take a course that combines two crap technologies to create a pile of crap that only the crap could have crapped.

Hard pass.

One of the main problems is that Excel is being used (and promoted) for things it was not designed for. Working with real data in an efficient way. Use only instead and you get everything (for free). No processing in the Microsoft/Excel/Python cloud (Grrrrrr, there is no cloud, just other people's computer clusters). No one will spy on your data or even steal your idea!

https://canarytokens.org - generate unique honeypot resources that should never be accessed by anyone. Unless they are scanning your network or there was a breach. Get notified by email or webhook. Sample resources: URL, DNS domain, // document (notify on open), etc.

Can also be used to detect leaks. For example, each developer can have a fake, unique AWS credentials on their machine. If someone attempts to use said credentials through API, you know whose computer was compromised

For all that #dataScience seems like a specialized corner of academia, I end up teaching on a wide swath from #qualitative coding and #groundedTheory to high-performance computing. Yesterday it was #dataHygiene in #Excel - today the pendulum swings and I'm teaching #webscraping with #Python. At least it keeps my #adhd from turning into boredom though.
