Thank you! That was driving me nuts. For me, unchecking Enable hardware acceleration worked but I wouldn’t have thought to try it without reading your solution so thanks for the help!

I didn’t received the e-mail from blogsome team but my blog in effect is down. Could you please send me by e-mail the e-mail address of the blogsome administrator so I can contact him and ask if it’s possible to backup my blog now ? Thank you in advance !

Comment on ASCII codes (text and chart) by Alan Davis

I’m looking for the ascii code for ALL symbols including weather symbols and geometric shapes such as a small square͸ – solid on 4 sides. I publish some newsletters for organizations I belong to and as secretary I frequently need to redesign forms done by others in years past.

thank you

Comment on MS-EXCEL SHORTCUT KEYS by Keyur

This can be done in VBA as follows:

Open a NEW workbook

Copy this macro to the clipboard

Sub Set_Case()
If ActiveCell.Value = LCase(ActiveCell) Then
ActiveCell.Value = UCase(ActiveCell)
Exit Sub
ElseIf ActiveCell.Value = UCase(ActiveCell) Then
ActiveCell.Value = _
Application.WorksheetFunction _
.Proper(ActiveCell.Value)
ElseIf ActiveCell.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction _
.Proper(ActiveCell) Then
ActiveCell.Value = LCase(ActiveCell)
End If
End Sub

Press ALT + F11

Insert > Module

Paste the macro into the Module area to the right.

Close back to Excel

Go to Tools > Macro > Macros

Highlight the macro ‘Set_Case’, if it is not already highlighted.

Click: Options

Select and enter a letter to be used as a keyboard shortcut. (Maybe… ‘c’ for case?)

Close back to Excel

File > Save As

Name the workbook Adjust Case

Reopen the Adjust Case workbook.

Open any other workbook you wish.

Click on any cell with text on any sheet in that workbook.

Press Ctrl + c (or whatever letter you chose).

Each time you enter this keyboard shortcut, the case will cycle through Proper, Upper, and Lower in a closed loop.

Note: You can make Excel automatically open Adjust Case.xls on startup by copying it the the XLStart folder. For Excel 2003, you would copy it to this location:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\XLStart

To make it truly seamless, you could copy a blank Book1 workbook into the XLStart folder also. Then, when you open Excel, the blank Book1 workbook would be the active workbook and Adjust Case would be open in the background. This would simulate a normal opening of Excel.

I had partialy green screen, meaning pretty wide stripe all along the top edge and green colour was shifted down. I did exactly oposite – hardware acceleration was checked, and I inchecked it. This solved the problem.

But your guide and hint was very helpful, thank you very much.
