First a question: Could this be made more difficult? I switched from VS 2012 to VS 2013 and the new system uses a whole different authentication engine. Once you get your head wrapped around roles and users in the new system it works the same for the individual web.config files in the directories to limit […]
So it seems that one place I work had someone log in with remote software from corporate but without asking first. Sure enough – a little digging in the events viewer look for events with these id’s for Dameware. 105,108,111,112,109. Even better – you can add a filter and on the filter window – you […]
So I had an odd situation where one company I was working at turned off ALL OUTGOING ports (yes – all including the web) for all employees. You needed special permission and they would enable this. So all remote access was removed for all of my other clients – so I hitch hiked free wifi […]

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/555159 It works. Now, I have to have this workbook work when others do not have this “other workbook” so I use late binding and am not using “Tool->References” to ensure any of this works. Hard coding the path is also what I did – but since it is string you use to reference the […]
Lets say you have an XML data source and you access it with VBA or thorugh a sheet with a data source already preset once and it worked. Note that this assumes that the link is behind a popup to enter your username/password (Basic Authentication) The next time you go into that sheet or run […]
Here is a good post that accurately resets what Excel parses on when you paste text. I have known for a long long time, that the LAST text-to-columns settings is what is used when one pastes data into excel, but I thought I would see (I finally snapped for the last time) what other people did. Well, […]
Here is a good article with many links and debates. I have used the “accepted” answer and gotten 95% accurate results – so why not 100%? I have not solved that one.
