Oh noes @readbeanicecream, whatever word processor will I use now that #Microsoft is killing #WordPad? Woe is me!

Why, hello there #LibreOffice.

What's that? Your #FOSS apps already completely replaced #Word and #Excel on my workstation years ago when Microsoft tried to charge a subscription for #MicrosoftOffice?

(Edit: I'm dumb, CONCAT)

My internet research is not working today. On Friday, I had found a way to add a semi-colon at the end of each #Excel cell with the Custom format cell and I cannot for the life of me find it again. What's the "take whatever the text is and add a character at the end"?

🤦‍♀️

[Even better if someone knows how to take two columns in Excel, and merge them with a semicolon between the both of them.]

I'm really outside of my comfort zone here. I'm trying to help myself a bit before AI is forced on us by converting one of my glossaries into a #CVS file that can be imported in the automatic translation tool.

However, I have terms with commas in them. It breaks the formatting and kills those equivalents.

I'm trying to understand the quotes, and how to isolate my commas, but I don't understand the explanations I find (so many quotations marks!!).

I think using a different separator than a comma would also work.

Anybody can help me?

The discussion about how the EU handles borders, can be fully described by #Excel.

@matthegap And just like in #Excel, the fewer boarders, the more we can concentrate on the actual contents of the spreadsheet.

A few tweaks to {pivotr} over the last few days - doubt I'll touch it again for a while, but overall very happy with how it's turned out🤸‍♂️

{pivotr} is an #RStats/shiny tool similar to #Excel's PivotTables, but it also generates dplyr/tidyr code for you:

Is there someone good with #spreadsheets here? (Google Sheets or #Excel)

I have a question for you :)

Sur #Excel, j'ai une macro qui fonctionne mais pas son raccourci (ctrl+d) alors que ça marche chez mes collègues.
A part si j'ai assigné ce raccourci à autre chose (comment vérifier ça? ) et que cela provoque un conflit, une idée pour résoudre ce mystère?

an LLVM to Excel spreadsheet compiler, truly what dreams are made of: https://belkadan.com/blog/2023/12/CellLVM/

it also reminded me of my investment banking days when I would crash Excel with iterative calculations (“brøether clippë may I have the lööps”)

ty for this gift to the world @jrose and P.S. I want to see the CSV alignment chart 👀

It's batshit that #Excel doesn't quote CSV exports by default (yes, I know the standard says "may" and not "must" and, yes, you can make custom export templates but what a pain in the ass).

(This is all you need to know about how my day is going)

"In the end, I keep coming back to #Excel to do the heavy lifting for my calculations outside of my machine learning life. For everything else, I use #Python. Why? Because Excel and Python let me be fast and productive. That's all that matters in the end and my clients don't care."

‘You didn’t just succeed, you Exceled’: Sydney man dubbed the ‘Annihilator’ wins spreadsheet world championship

Microsoft Excel is officially an esport. In each round, eight players are given a big ream of data, plus a set of instructions. Contestants need to create formulas and subsets to process the data, working against the clock to solve stages of the case and earn bonus points. Every seven and a half minutes the lowest scorer is eliminated.

@kayb Abgesehen von #Excel würde ich schon sehr plädieren, Dateien von Anfang an aussagekräftige Namen zu geben.

Das verhindert Verwechslungen und erleichtert das Ablegen und Wiederfinden.
