Problem with Language

Hi Robert,

In Hungarian Excel we found a FUNCS.XLS file in folding
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\1038
that contained the translation table of English and Hungarian function names.
Have a try, perhaps there is a similar table also in the Swedish version.

Regards,
Stefi

Robert,

If you enter a function in a cell, and then go into the VBIDE (Alt-F11), in
the immediate window (Ctrl-G), just type

?Activecell.Formula

this will give you the English equivalent, as VBA works in English.

Tnx Bob
It was an easy way to do it and I will use it in the future.

Robert

The Hungarian way was not working on my Swedish Excel. Tnx anyway.

Hi Bob,

Is there a similar way in the opposite direction? E.g. if I receive a
function tip from you in English, does XL have any feature that translate it
into a national language?

Thanks, Niek, it's a fine add-in, but for the moment it doesn't speak
Hungarian. Maybe it will be added in the future, as it's mentioned in the
About-text!

Stefi

Yep.

In the immediate window:

activecell.formula = "=yourformulahere"

Remember to double up your quotation marks if have them:
activecell.formula = "=if(a1="""","""",a1)

And if you have the formula in R1C1 notation:
activecell.formular1c1 = "=yourformulahere"

(And make sure that the activecell is where you want it <vbg.)

But this does assume that you have that language version installed.

Thanks Dave and Bob, that is the case, I run a Hungarian version, and this
translation method works nicely!
