Excel 12, er, 2007 - Semi-idle Curiosity
Do XL12's MINVERSE and MDETERM handle arrays larger than 51 rows by 51
columns? Also, does the array formula =MMULT(TRANSPOSE(ROW(1:100000)),ROW(1:100000)) return 3.3333833335E+14 [from the formula for the sum of squares from 1 to N = N (N+1) (2N+1) / 6]? Increase 100000 to 1000000, and does it return 3.333338333335E+17 ? Or do the NDAs prevent you from saying? |

You haven't dl'd beta 2 ?
I haven't either! If I could get just Excel and not the whole Office suite I'd love to play with it. Biff "Harlan Grove" wrote in message ups.com...

hi Harlan,
MINVERSE and MMULT work , have not tried MDETERM but expect that will work as well. regards Charles ______________________ Decision Models FastExcel 2.2 Beta now available www.DecisionModels.com "Harlan Grove" wrote in message ups.com...

NDA only permits discussion of what has already been publically disclosed.
http://blogs.msdn.com/excel/ Is a good place to start for new features and extensions of old features. http://blogs.msdn.com/excel/archive/...26/474258.aspx refers to a complete elimination of limits on size of array formulas. FYI Excel 2003 handles larger arrays with MDETERM. Jerry "Harlan Grove" wrote: Do XL12's MINVERSE and MDETERM handle arrays larger than 51 rows by 51 columns?

Hi Jerry,
Any NDA does not apply to any results one gets from testing the publicly available Beta2. MSoft expects that the public forums will be a support point for the public beta.

.... Or do the NDAs prevent you from saying? Since the NDAs don't prevent discussing how the public beta actually works, another question. When the UI gets in the way, it's nice to get rid of it COMPLETELY. Does XL12 support the equivalent of the following (**WARNING** USE IN A **SECOND** EXCEL INSTANCE) in older versions? Sub ugh() Dim x As CommandBar Application.DisplayFormulaBar = False Application.DisplayStatusBar = False For Each x In Application.CommandBars x.Enabled = False Next x End Sub This leaves only the row/column frame and the worksheet tabs, if they were already visible. I've read in the blog that the ribbon can be colapsed to just its tabs, but can it be COMPLETELY HIDDEN/DISABLED? FWIW, Excel history buffs will recall that XL5 had a brand new menu compared to XL4, *and* Microsoft provided an option in XL5 that REPLACED the new XL5 menu with the XL4 menu. [Microsoft failed to provide an option in the XL4 menu that switched back to the XL5 menu, making for much joy using the product.] Is there an equivalent feature for XL12? Or is this New Coke before Coca Cola Co realized the revenue potential of also [also?! - do they still make New Coke?] selling Classic Coke? |

Hi Harlan,
I know there has been some discussion of this amongst Access people, but I dont know the outcome. You certainly cannot do it using the commandbars model, you would have to use the XML stuff, and I have not looked at that in enough detail to know the answer.
