BYROW/BYCOL/MAP Variants for Nested Arrays + BENCHMARK
Hey everyone! I made some simple BYROW, BYCOL, and MAP variants that can return nested arrays, and I also made a BENCHMARK function for performance testing. Here's some code for testing: BYROW⊟ = LAMBDA(array, function, [orient], LET( me, LAMBDA(me, seg, LET( n, ROWS(seg), IF( n = 1, function(seg), IF( orient, HSTACK( me(me, TAKE(seg, INT(n / 2))), me(me, DROP(seg, INT(n / 2))) ), VSTACK( me(me, TAKE(seg, INT(n / 2))), me(me, DROP(seg, INT(n / 2))) ) ) ) ) ), IFNA(me(me, array), "") ) ); I didn’t put a huge amount of effort into polishing this but In my tests on my device, these performed a lot better than using REDUCE + VSTACK for the same kind of thing, so maybe it’ll be useful to someone. Really curious to see how people use it, and if something looks like it should be optimized or changed, say so. I'll update them regularly, fix bugs whenever I can. You can find the rest of them on my Gist pages: https://gist.github.com/Medohh2120/f565516bc636700adf5ba27fd8f0d19e, https://gist.github.com/Medohh2120/d9d04f56d93694aed9d0c49d516f0fbf.Medohh2120May 28, 2026Copper Contributor82Views0likes0CommentsLine chart dynamic scaling of Y-axis
Micro$oft, please, please, pretty please with sugar on top, END the ensh*ttification, and get the Y-axis of a line chart to dyanmically scale with the data range that is being plotted. The range defaults to 0 as the lowest Y-value. The only way to change it, is to manually set the ax range, or use a work-around involving VBA. So... NO! This is crazy! It should be easy as apple pie for you lot to add an option to dynamically scale the Y-range in the chart, but I guess you are far too busy pushing people onto your crappy AI, which you can really stick some place the sun doesn't shine. Thank you.Chef2000May 14, 2026Copper Contributor42Views0likes0CommentsPython integrado con excel
Tengo una suscripción de Microsoft 365 Empresa Estándar, ya estoy dentro del grupo de Microsoft Insider 365, tengo habilitado el Canal Beta pero aún así no me esta funcionando Python integrado con excel ya que escribo el código pero no me muestra el resultado, en su lugar me muestra el mensaje "BLOQUEADO" indicando que no tengo la licencia requerida. He hecho de todo lo que me ha salido de consejos en la web, incluso cerré sesión y volví a ingresar pero el resultado es el mismo:SergioMartinez069May 10, 2026Copper Contributor32Views0likes0CommentsCannot access my own post, Access Denied

A new Excel Think Tank
After nearly 30 years of using Excel commercially, I am now coming to retirement. But before I finally hang up my Excel boots, I have setup a small Excel think tank. The idea being people can send me their issues and I will work with you to build your permanent solution in Excel. I have created a number of solutions from Email Validator, Automatic dashboard creators, Fraud analysis, Auto resume makes, Music Syns (All in Excel), so if give it try.MapundaApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor80Views0likes0CommentsExcel: Subtract multiple parts from inventory with a single input
Ho un sistema di inventario in Excel con tre tabelle: Elenco principale di tutti i ricambi (Codice ricambio, Voce, Usato, Magazzino) Registrazione delle parti in entrata Registri UTILIZZATI delle parti consumate Il sistema funziona bene quando consumo singoli componenti , dato che mi basta inserire il codice del componente nella tabella UTILIZZATI e aggiornare le scorte. Il problema si presenta quando utilizzo dei componenti nell'ambito di un processo. Per esempio: Un Gruppo1 utilizza più parti Un assemblaggio completo utilizza tutte le parti Al momento, se completo un gruppo o un intero assemblaggio, devo inserire manualmente ogni singolo componente nella tabella USED. Vorrei poter inserire un singolo riferimento nella tabella USED (ad esempio: Gruppo1 o Completo) e far sì che Excel lo calcoli automaticamente: dedurre tutte le parti correlate dalla tabella PARTI basato su una mappatura predefinita La mia idea è quella di creare una tabella di mappatura (simile a una distinta base/definizione di gruppo), in cui ogni gruppo sia collegato a più codici articolo con una quantità definita per articolo. Quindi, quando inserisco un gruppo nella tabella USED, Excel dovrebbe sottrarre di conseguenza tutte le parti associate. La domanda è: come posso farlo?andreaamadio05Apr 18, 2026Copper Contributor24Views0likes0CommentsPivot Table TOP 5 vs Slicer
I create a Pivot Table, sort the data then filter on the TOP 5. I then create the Pivot Chart (horizontal TOP 5 bar chart). In my dashboard, I have slicers. When a Slicer filter is applied then removed, the Pivot Table and Chart do not go back to display the TOP 5 data but the whole set of data. Any simple way to ensure the pivot table / Chart recovers only the TOP 5 values (and not the whole set of values) after the slicer filters are reset ?PouBelleApr 12, 2026Copper Contributor24Views0likes0CommentsGetting started in Excel Labs Custom Modules (missing "publish" step)
First-time poster — please be gentle! Context Excel for Mac I have a large library of LAMBDA formulas and wanted to manage them using Excel Labs In particular, I wanted to organise formulas into custom Modules Issue How to actually activate functions defined in custom Modules in Excel Labs I recently discovered Excel Labs and was very excited to use it to manage and structure a large library of LAMBDA formulas. My goal was straightforward: create custom Modules to organise formulas by purpose, and then use those formulas in the workbook. However, it took several hours of experimentation and debugging — even to get a trivial example like: ABC() = 12 to work when defined in a custom Module. The missing piece (which Copilot, Google searches, and the README all missed) is this: Functions defined in custom Excel Labs Modules are inert until the module is imported into the special Workbook module. Until that import step occurs, functions in custom Modules: do not appear in Excel Labs → Names do not appear in Formulas → Name Manager are not callable from the grid According to Copilot this behaviour is not currently documented, and the UI strongly suggests that custom Modules are “active” by default — which they are not. Working workflow (for others who hit the same issue) This is the workflow that finally made things work for me (possibly sub‑optimal, but reliable): Create and maintain functions in custom modules (e.g. Transformations) Explicitly import the required functions into the Workbook module, e.g.: TransformAtoB = Transformations.TransformAtoB Workbook module now publishes to: Excel Labs → Names Formulas → Name Manager This makes conceptual sense — maintain a large structured library of formulas (or import libraries from GitHub), only activate the formulas required by a particular workbook. But without documentation, it’s very easy to assume custom Modules are active by default. Why I’m posting this When I finally asked Copilot “Why didn’t you say this up front?”, the answer was essentially: This publish step is not documented in the README or the UI, and users are easily led to assume Modules are active by default. So I’m posting here to save others from repeating the same debugging journey. Documentation request It would help enormously if the documentation (README / FAQ) stated explicitly that: Custom Modules are source-only Importing into the Workbook module is the publish step Only the Workbook module is wired to Name Manager and the Excel grid Even a short note would remove a major stumbling block for new users. I’m not a GitHub user, otherwise I would also raise this there — if someone from the community is able to mirror this feedback on GitHub, that would be much appreciated.PeteGossApr 08, 2026Copper Contributor67Views0likes0CommentsExcel Macros Spreadsheets Not Loading
I've spent some time with Microsoft Support (almost 3 hours, including uninstalling my MS 365 and reinstalling it), but I'm having an issue with my Excel Macro spreadsheets not loading at all. This is what I get each time. Also having an issue with non-Macro spreadsheets that I'm unable to use the Bold, Italic, and Underline functions (get the spinning wheel and then Excel Not Responding), as well as not able to use the Format function (get the same spinning wheel and then Excel Not Responding). I've been using these same Excel Macro Spreadsheets for over 15 years. Please help!blsbls99Apr 06, 2026Copper Contributor137Views1like0Comments
