    Is this a support group for excel related files?

    Good day! Just wanted to ask if this is a support group for excel files for free? I came across this group because I have this excel file wherein it shows that the author is winon at excel forum. I am just really concerned, because this person sells the macro enabled excel file and I'm worried that he's not even the author. thanks

    Winon is a registered member of this Forum and others as well.

    To my knowledge, Winon never sold any of his creations. If another person is selling a project with Winon's name in the code, chances are that person is attempting to
    make a profit off someone else's intellectual property.

    Just to confirm what Logit said - Winon (who lives in South Africa and is a friend of mine) is indeed an respected senior member of this forum, were the bulk of our help is offered free. I also do not believe he sells his work, although he may have provided the user with that file via our Commercial Services forum (where you can pay a small fee for specific help from our gurus).

    To be fair, he may have developed an Excel Application and needed help which Winon provided through this or another forum. In which case, he is crediting Winon as the author of a specific piece of code, function or subroutine. I think we'd need to know more to understand if he is selling plagiarised work.
