    Jim Sloman Ocean Plus

    Just curious - does anyone know much about Jim? I looked on Amazon and there are books by James Sloman - Handbook for Humans for example. I note that the publisher is Ocean Blue - is this a coincidence or is "our" Jim the same Jim as this author? OK - I can answer my own question - he IS...

    help on excel capturing Hi & lo

    It can definitely be done with a bit of VBA. Unfortunately I am too busy at the moment to write it for you but this is what you need to do: You will need to keep the last checked time in a cell somewhere. In the Worksheet_Change event for Sheet1, put some code that does the following...

    Excel 2007

    This may be a very obvious point to make but one of the best ways of speeding things up is to do the calcs inside a VBA routine rather than on the sheet. You can copy a whole range of data into an array in one single instruction. Then you can loop down the data doing whatever. Then it is a...
