Demonstration of Vista SP 2 WebDAV working

  • "Windows Vista Service Pack 2 … web folders … not warning every time … allow this. … previously … all kinds of errors. … Now: the first time I tried this with my updated system, I got errors, it told me I needed permission, and all sorts of other things, but those issues were resolved by clearing all of my Internet Explorer settings. So I removed cookies and stored passwords and after that, everything is working exactly as one would desire." - grahamperrin on 2009-07-20

Mobile Opportunity: A quick history of software platforms: How we got here, and where we're going

  • Don't be misled by the word 'Mobile' in the title. This (long) article is very broad-ranging. An excellent overview of where things are going.

    Considering the subsequent announcement of Google Chrome OS, Michael Mace's concepts of 'metaplatform' are particularly relevant.

Office 2004: Updates

  • An explanation and workaround for the "Document not saved" error that may occur within Excel.

  • Concerning my earlier message about Excel 2004 returning a "Document not saved" error on a workbook with VBA macros.
    >


    Turns out this is a common problem. On the mac it goes back to the 9.x days and covers all versions of Excel since then. Similar problems happen on windows machines. from http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups (search on "document not saved" and/or "corrupt vba"), it's a 'known' problem with the VBA files collecting garbage.

VBA Code Cleaner

  • A workaround for the "Document not saved" error that may occur within Excel.

  • During the process of creating VBA programs a lot of
    junk code builds up in your files. If you don't clean your files periodically you will begin to experience strange problems caused by this extra baggage. Cleaning a project involves exporting the contents of all its VBComponents to text files, deleting the
    components and then importing the components back from the text files.

Combatting Template Bloat

  • Why Word doesn't clean up after itself when saving a template which contains
    a VBA project is one of the great mysteries of life. Excel suffers from the
    same problem.
