    How to Fix HTML Copy & Paste when Posting?

    I got an 'HTML maker' add-on in excel to let me copy and paste cells onto replies in this forum. But when I click submit I get an error message about htmls. How do I fix this?

    I prefer to use the add-on. Its easier and safer. How do I go about using the add-on or other add-on?

    You can't - as you have found, it will cause the forum to return an error.

    Which add-on are you using? The one I use (ForumTools) has a BB code option that works here. There's a link to it towards the bottom of this blog post: http://excelmatters.com/excel-forums/

    However, we much prefer you to attach sample files, and that is usually what you will be asked to do here.
