    Post Excel Version in Threads

    I recently answered a post incorrectly partly because I assumed the person was referring to SUMIFS in the plural but as ratcat correctly pointed out; this is a new function in Excel 2007.

    Not having used Excel 2007, I was not aware of this. Still debating whether to upgrade but thats a seperate issue.

    Its very easy to forget to state which version of Excel you are using in a thread, so perhaps it would help if there was an option or dropdown list in the first post of a thread, which you have to tick or select for the version.

    It would also help others using the same version to know that a 'solved' thread works for their particular version of Excel.

    Just a thought ...spellbound

    It's a good suggestion, but I doubt if many OPs would use it. Look at the trouble we have with Code Tags!
    Hope that helps.

    G'day guys,

    On top of the great suggestion.

    Another suggestion.

    Make a required field in the CP User, that must be filled out.

    Then this required field can be displayed under your registered date or under the user name.
    Have I made you happy ??? If yes, please make me happy by pressing the Reputation icon in my post.
    Please don't forget to do the same to other contributors of this forum.

    Thanks


    I don't void confusion, I create it
