using Networkdays formula in French version of Excel options
I have a spreadsheet that I have several references to the formula
'Networkdays'. The spreadsheet works great using the English version of Excel however, I have collegues that use a French copy of Excel and the spreadsheet does not function using that version of Excel. In order to get the spreadsheet to work, I have to change all the references in the spreadsheet from 'Networkdays' to 'NB.JOURS.OUVRES' and then it will work. Is there anyway I can set up the spreadsheet so that it will work in both languages without having to re-write the formual for different versions of Excel? Maybe a statement 'if Excel ver=French, use NB.JOURS.OUVRES, if English use Networkdays'? thx Mel |

using Networkdays formula in French version of Excel options
ATP functions are not translated automatically. In Excel2007 they are an
integral part of Excel and are translated. Most ATP functions cn be simulated using worksheet formuls; see http://www.dailydoseofexcel.com/arch...-addin-part-1/ -- Kind regards, Niek Otten Microsoft MVP - Excel "MichaelH" wrote in message ... I'm having the same issue with spreadsheets developed in English version EXCEL2003, being used in Germany. Anyone know why the Analysis Tool Pak functions aren't translated automatically like all the "standard" functions? Can anyone suggest a good fix - I don't want to maintain multiple versions of the same spreadsheet? My own thoughts are to create a new UDF... xNETWORKDAYS() and within that, use the VBA function equivalent. However, since it would come from the add-in file atpvb*EN*.xls (where *EN* refers to English), will I just end up with the same "not translated" issue? Will my German colleagues have an atpvba*DE*.xls to install the toolpack and again if I call the funciton in "english" it will fail? Apprectiate any help. ;343946 Wrote: I have a spreadsheet that I have several references to the formula 'Networkdays'.

using Networkdays formula in French version of Excel options
Mmmm! Having difficulty getting those formulae to work. But I will persevere. Thanks. Was I right about the ATP VBA functions, would I have come up with the same problem if I'd tried to "code" a UDF and then send that to Germany?

using Networkdays formula in French version of Excel options
<would I have come up with the same problem if I'd tried to "code" a UDF and
then send that to Germany? Probably. But sometimes Excel and its international issues surprise me. You can easily test that, I assume. -- Kind regards, Niek Otten Microsoft MVP - Excel "MichaelH" wrote in message ... Mmmm! Having difficulty getting those formulae to work. But I will persevere.
