[WHAT's NEW at David McRitchie's "My Excel Pages"]

Bookmarklets have made this page unnecessary, Simply go to xlindex.htm page and use the HREF and Paren Tips bookmarkleters there.  This page has not been maintained for a long time, and now there is no need to update or maintain it.

This list was created using some SPF/PC macros and was originally sorted using an old version of Netscape (pre 4.0), which supported sorting bookmarks.  The date timestamps created using Netscape in the process were then removed.  The content here includes bookmarks found in excel.htm and my other Excel pages as of 1999-02-05.  Additions since then made manually.

If there is something  better for sorting <DL> lists let me know. (must be FREE) David McRitchie

The sort order can be verified using a VBA program by Stratos Malasiotis, 2000-07-13 in message .  The actual purpose is to find all the links on a webpage. (mailto:DMcRitchie%20%6Dsn.com).

The listing below contains links to my pages, and topics on my pages.  Offsite links are included as they are found on individual pages in the related areas as well as few additional links; however, if you are looking for links to other sites John Walkenbach maintains the best Spreadsheet site around and has the best if not the most comprehensive Excel Links page.  I prefer people to come to my site to see my material for it's content (mostly the simple stuff) rather than be known simply as a site for links.  MS KB references not referenced on my pages were seen in newsgroup postings.


Pages with the following links are mine:  and include about 45% of those shown (1999-09-29).

This is a tip (Tom Ogilvy) on translating English functions to the language of your Excel.
  1. Go into the VBE in the immediate window
  2. Put in something like
    Range("A1").Formula = "=Sum(B1:B10)"
  3. Then hit enter.  Now look at A1 and the formula should be translated.
There is at least one MS KB article on obtaining a list of function names used in another language but I can't find them at the moment. -- David
Foreign language URL's can be pasted into the URL section of 
http://translator.go.com/  to translate the URL and links navigated to thereafter to the (European) language of your choice.  In IE you can right-click on a hyperlink and copy shortcut for pasteing.  Available languages to or from English are: Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese.

This is an example of Laurent Longre http://longre.free.fr/   [translate French to English] -- hard to believe you are looking at a machine generated translation, watch out for coding.

More information, if any, will be included on my language.htm page.
