Add a page title to a OneNote page using Power Automate
Hello, I have set up a flow in Power Automate to create a new page in OneNote. It extracts information from an email, including the information that I want to be the title of the new page in OneNote. The flow creates the new page in the correct notebook and section, but the page is untitled. My flow correctly composes the title in a Compose action named PageTitle. The parameters for the action "Create page in a section" only include the following Notebook Key Notebook section Page Content AI suggested that I add the page title to Page Content inside either an html h1 tag. I tried that. It does not turn the text inside the tag into the title of the page. It simply formats the text inside the contents of the OneNote page. I also tried using the html title tag. That didn't work either, and the PageTitle wasn't even output into the contents of the OneNote page, so it was just empty. I would appreciate suggestions for how to do this. I cannot see either a OneNote tag or Power Automate tag for this discussion. If I am posting my question in the wrong discussion place, please direct me to the right place. Thanks.Solved39Views0likes2CommentsMerging two Columns Vertically, not Horizontally
I wish to merge two columns. However, all suggestions I have found so far use horizontal merging, often using the Concatenate command, so cell A1 contains John, and cell B1 contains Jones, producing in cell C1 John Jones, that's what I mean by horizontal merging. In my Case the A column contains dates, and the B column contains what happened on that date. eg. A1 May 1963 B1 The Beatles had their first no. 1 single The output I want in the C column is, something like this May 1963 The Beatles had their first no. 1 single So the date in Column A goes above the data in Column B which is what I mean by vertical merging. Can it be done?Solved77Views0likes2CommentsSpell Number in Bangladeshi/Indian Style By Excel Formula.

Hi All Just seeing if anyone has a workaround for section headers and footers issue i'm having.... I have a document that multiple sections, each section has a 'Different First Page Header/Footer' as there are different header images for each section. The footer is pretty standard across the document - page numbers and specific document info... My document has..... (for example) Section 1: First Page Header/Footer (page 1) Section 1: (pages, 2, 3, 4, 5) Section 2: First Page Header/Footer (page 6) Section 2: (pages 7, 8, 9,10) and so on.... If i try 'Same as Previous' on 'Section 2 First Page' footer (page 6) it takes the footer text from 'Section 1 First Page', rather than Section 1: Page 5 If i try 'Same as Previous' on 'Section 2: Page 7' footer, it takes text from Section 1: Page 2, rather than Section 2: First Page: page 6 Is there any way of just making the footer continuous across the whole document? without changing the header which is different for each section.?? At the moment i'm having to edit each footer for each section which can be tiresome at best. Anyway, hope that makes sence Thanks for your help in advance. JSolved40Views0likes3CommentsAccessing an App through 'Open in new window' from Teams only opens file error
Hello, I have deleted an Excel file from a SharePoint folder that I don't need anymore. Now, when I try to open Excel 365 from 'Open in new window' in Teams, I don't get to the usual landing page with recent files, options for a new file, etc. but just an error message: 'Sorry, this file has been deleted or moved', referring to the file that I have indeed deleted. I can access the usual landing page if it's in the Excel 365 window embedded in Teams, but opening the app in a new window is no longer possible. Why would the landing page for opening an app in a new window not be the normal landing page, but just an error message, with no option to open another file, seems counter-intuitive. Does anyone have a solution? Best regards, MJSolved32Views0likes2CommentsData Validation Conditional Formating
I have a shared spreadsheet where coordinators enter staff codes for particular tasks they would like them to do (it's not a timesheet, just a future planning tool). I have set up a data validation to warn them if they enter a staff code that is not in the list, however if someone leaves after their code has been entered, the validation doesn't re-check so the now-invalid code remains happily in the spreadsheet. I need the cells to highlight if the staff code is not in the list. Does anyone know if this is possible? Currently, I need to search for each code as someone leaves and manually remove them from the spreadsheet and then ask coordinators to re-enter new values. It would be great if it would just flag them in red when I remove them from the staffing list and coordinators can see if there is (now) an error that needs fixing. Not sure how to attach a file as it's not 'link'able with a URL, so here's screen shots:Solved100Views0likes4CommentsConditional formatting across sheets

When using an Excel spreadsheet as a form, is there a way to move from one cell location directly to another cell location after pressing enter in the first cell? What I want to do is have the user enter the width in cell B7, hit enter, and have B9 become the "active" cell, then enter the length in B9, hit enter, and have B11 become the "active" cell, so on and so forth. Essentially I want to skip from one input cell to another without having to go through all of the rows. Not all "moves" from one cell to another would be exactly two rows down, other locations in the spreadsheet would require moves of 3 or 4 rows to get to the next "active" cell. All of my moves would be in the same column though. Thanks to all who look at this.Solved60Views0likes2CommentsDrawing data from multiple spreadsheets
Hi, So I have multiple spreadsheets with animal numbers and their weights I want to combine it on one spreadsheet The problem is that not all the animal numbers are on all the tabs, so I need a calculation that will "skip over" the one's not there. So for example this sheet (28 October) there are animals without tags and we gave them numbers 0.1-0.3, and then below that you'll see that 24004 wasn't weighed on that day so I don't want the formula on the final sheet to bomb out. If there's some way to do this process faster than what I'm doing currently - one by one = and then selecting the tab and the corresponding weight and animal number.

I am in the process of moving to Excel from Google sheets. I am trying to build a project sheet and add a formula that will provide a "sparkline" for quick reference of the projected start and end dates, and then based on the status of the task (not started, in progress or complete) and today's date in relation to the start and end dates of the task, change color (Green, yellow, red, etc).

Having a strange issue with one of our users when using Microsoft 365 Apps on a Windows 11 system. The original behavior reported was when he was trying to save a document to OneDrive. He gets a processing box but it never completes and the app freezes. Then he noticed if you just did a Save As from any of the Office Apps you get the blank page and the app freezes. Sometimes a reboot resolves the issue but only for a short time. Here are some items we have tried to this point: Have tried pausing synching in OneDrive repairing office 365 Reinstalling office 365 Saved to downloads > Can reopen document but when trying to save as again the page is blank. Will either have to force close in task manager or let it sit until "waiting for another application to complete an OLE action" then closing Pausing auto save to cloud in word/outlook/excel Disconnecting the OneDrive sync and re-connecting seem to work at first but after an hour or so we saw the same behavior. We decided to set him up on a brand new system and after we set things up the issue followed. We are seeing the same behavior on the new system. One item of note is we have a third laptop which has an old version of Office using the ODT installer which is working fine with his account. The other two laptops that are failing have the latest Office 365 software downloaded from the portal. Not sure if this is an issue on the backend with his account or some other type of issue. Just wanted to see if anyone has ran into this issue before. Thanks.Solvedvlookup, then sumif
Hello. I am not sure if what I am asking is possible. But here goes: It is possible to incorporate a vlookup or match in my formula, whereby it first looks up what is column B, then as a result of a match, it sums up column C, then the rest of my formula. In my current formula, it still feels "manual", in that I have to select individual cells in column C - and this is too time consuming as I have thousands of rows. Here is my current formula: (C2/SUM(C$2,C$6,C$10))*(SUMIFS($J$2:$J$17,$H$2:$H$17,$B2))Solved54Views0likes1Comment
