Side load office add-in?
I've created an office.js add-in that I can test with debugging in VS Code. I have deployed it including the manifest to a web site, but now I can't find the option to add it to my Excel anymore, where has that option gone? I'm on Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2602 Build 16.0.19725.20126) 64-bit Thanks GJ
How to unlink cells in Format Control
I am developing a survey in excel (because the questions are complicated and long and do not format well in e.g. MS Forms) and using option buttons to choose responses. Each question has 6 potential responses. In developer I have inserted a group box, into which I placed 6 option buttons. After formatting the buttons so that they snap to the excel grid I then linked them to a cell to make calculating responses easier. On-line advice then suggested that I could copy and paste these to each new question. However, by doing this, I am only able to choose 1 option as they are ALL linked to the same cell. How do I unlink each group box of 6 option buttons so that I can link each group individually to a different cell for each question? Or - do I have to create a group box and option boxes from scratch for each question set? I have removed the questions for simplicity of view (note that there are 6 in Q1 and Q2 not visible) and highlighted the linked cell from Q1. As you can see - for Q5 this has given an answer of 26 (the 26th option button) rather than 2 (the 2nd button in Q5)
WrapRows2Dλ / WrapCols2Dλ: Fast, efficient 2D wrapping without flattening
Background One of Excel's biggest weaknesses is in working with 2D arrays as objects that can be re-shaped. WRAPROWS/WRAPCOLS do not accept 2D arrays (#VALUE!) and are strictly for shaping 1D arrays. The usual workarounds involve flattening with TOROW/TOCOL then re-shaping with WRAPROWS/WRAPCOLS, REDUCE used as an iterator to stack (do-able but slow), and even MAKEARRAY (do-able, but not instinctive and slow). The Goal Fast, efficient 2D wrapping without flattening. The Approach Pure deferred i/j indexing with modular math and sequencing. The function and sample workbook is provided below. I welcome any and all feedback: suggestions for improvement, your approach to 2D shaping, etc. // Fast, efficient 2D wrapping without flattening //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //---WrapCols2Dλ--- //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //Author: Patrick H. //Date: 1/28/2026 //Version: 1.0 // //Description: //Wrap a 2D array into column blocks of a specified width while preserving row height. //The wrapped blocks are stacked vertically in the output. //Jagged or uneven final blocks are padded with NA() by default, unless a fill value //is supplied via the optional pad_with parameter. // //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //Parameter Description //array - 2D array to be wrapped (1D arrays not supported) //new_width - Number of columns in each wrapped block // //Optional Description //pad_with - Fill value used to pad incomplete blocks.

Is anyone able to advise the following formula: =COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,$R$4,$C5:$C15,"<=" & V3,$D5:$D15, ">" & V3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$G5:$G15,"<=" & V3,$H5:$H15, ">" & V3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$K5:$K15,"<=" & V3,$L5:$L15, ">" & V3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$O5:$O15,"<=" & V3,$P5:$P15, ">" & V3) Is there a way to simplify this? Is there a way to make this more accurate? Cells in column G & H, I & J, O & P are using the following format: =IF(C6="","",C6+E6) Cells in U4:CC4 are using the following format: =COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,$R$4,$C5:$C15,"<=" & U3,$D5:$D15, ">" & U3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$G5:$G15,"<=" & U3,$H5:$H15, ">" & U3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$K5:$K15,"<=" & U3,$L5:$L15, ">" & U3)-COUNTIFS($B$5:$B$15,"="&$R$4,$O5:$O15,"<=" & U3,$P5:$P15, ">" & U3) Cells in U5:CC15 are using the following format: =IF(U$4>=$T5,1,"") My issue is is when I put in the three break times, the mid break comes out at a shorter time. My other issue is is that when I put in the times in row 5,6and 11, the data is coming up as a combined data in rows 5, 6 and seven on the page two. Just for reference, "page two" is the same spreadsheet. What I need to happen is that I enter in the shift start time and finish time. This then populates through to Break 1, 2 and 3. The Time entry is the time the break starts. ie: 1 hour after start of shift, 1 hour after coming back from break, etc. The break entry is the duration of the break taken. ie: 30 minutes. Once all the info is put in, the relevant "Time Block" on "Page 2" shows a 1. What is happening at the moment is that when I enter all the time data, the time blocks are not populating correctly in accordance to the entry. Basically, If I have numerous people on shiftI need the time blocks to show where I have shortfalls in shift cover and not having too many people on break at the same time.

Python in Excel is enabled but the runtime never downloaded
Hi, Python in Excel is enabled but the runtime never downloaded. Excel returns `/app/officepy/bin/python`, but the runtime folder is missing and HTTPS fails inside the sandbox. This is the ghost-runtime state. Please escalate to the Office engineering team to reset rollout flags and push the runtime package to my device. Excel build: 16.0.17231.20182 (Current Channel) ODT repair: fails with “couldn’t install” AppContainer: registered but empty Runtime folder: missing under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Office HTTPS: 400 errors inside Python sandbox I tried everything possible with Co-pilot's help. I tried reinstalling office full repair and ODT reinstall attempted. The runtime package never downloads. Apparently, This requires a rollout flag reset.

Hello, I am running into a strange issue that I am not sure how to solve. I am using Power Query to link to external Excel data files/Sheets and then I process the data within Power Query and also have some Macros that run after the data is refreshed. I am seeing a drastic difference in the amount of time it takes separate users to open/refresh this file (the users have the same internet connection, use the same link to the file on a Shared Drive on our servers, same Excel settings, and have the same hardware). Some users can load and run all Macros in < 15 seconds, while the others take > 10 minutes. I have exhausted all possible causes/reasons that I can think of and am looking for some guidance. Any and all suggestions are appreciated! Thanks, Skywalker_How do you respond to...
Hello my Excellers, I wish you all a happy new year full of great things. I have a question and I am not sure if this is a purely an Excel question or something else but maybe I start here and see how it goes: As you all may have noticed the AI craze is blooming like crazy. If you want to sell lettuce slap AI on its label and step back. I use Bing to search for VBA examples. For example I typed "excel vba code to find cells with formulas" and I get AI to find or "compose" a decent example that with minimal editing will work perfectly. But then at the end of the code and its explanation I sometimes find these kind of questions: "If you want to list the addresses of formula cells instead of highlighting them, I can give you a version that outputs them in the Immediate Window or a new sheet. Do you want me to provide that listing version as well?" How do you say YES I want that code that would list the addresses in a sheet? I see buttons like "Undo" rounded Left Arrow, or "Redo" rounded Right arrow, and a "Copy, "Export", and then "Tweak Content", "Rewrite" button, A "Testing Tools" dropdown with options like "Generate test data" and "Integrate test cases", and another dropdown called "More Actions" with options like "Perform code review", "Explain the code", "Add error handling", and "Make code compliable" and the last dropdown "Work Report" with its own options. But I do not see anything that would allow me to say YES I want that code that would list the addresses in a sheet? Thanks for any insight... GiGi
Moving a column of text data into 3 columns of data?
I have a column of text data cells 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and longer. I want to create 3 column of data to graph and manipulate Cell in Columns. 1,2,3 3,4,5 5,6,7 8,9,10 and longer. So i need to create 3 columns of data from 1 column of data. I am using Mac Excel 16 and I can not make this happen. I have tried all sorts of solutions. Help? Thank you,Formula/method to link the data/responses I get from my forms into a different table.
Hi everyone! I need help with a project that I'm creating. Im making use of Microsoft Forms in order to input certain information. I made use of branching since some answers depend on the previous choice. So moving on to my problem, I want my table2 to get the responses/data from the data table created by the forms. Table 2 Table of responses For reference for the spill error, here is the formula that I used. Any insights will help a lot. Thank you have a great day everyone.
