Default translateIT updated. Autotranslates Analysis Toolpak functions

Thx!.

FYI..

I've just uploaded a revised version.
I wasn't happy with the (crude) Search & Replace for ATP repair..

Current routine:

Index all error formulas and the ranges in which they are used.
Translate the ATP functions in the formulas
(using regex to prevent substrings being replaced)
Update the formulas in the sheet

and guess what.. more precision..and faster :)

Hey keepITcool,

Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for this
"very-cool-tool". TranslateIt made it possible for me to post in
English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Russian NG's, something
that would be a nightmare (if possible at all) should I have to
translate my formulae manually as, in spite of the fact that I speak
or understand all those languages, I have never used any Excel
interface, but English :-)

Regards,
KL

FYI

I've added a routine to translateIT that updates all analysis
toolpak functions in the activeworkbook from a "foreign" file to
local language.

It is a basic search and replace on the error cells in the sheets.
No extensive parsing/verification, (but I do the longer strings
first..). Be aware it's not foolproof, so be sure to verify before
overwiting your original files.

Let me know what you think.


It's similar to (but a lot faster than) the autolocalize routine in
the ATP translator from Eric Desart at acousticsnoise.com
(downloading from his site has been impossible for months and
people were asking for this functionality)
