Excel documents is always moving on desktop
I am running Windows 7 64 bit, all updates installed, but it will probably work on most of the Windows 7 machines.
I don't have an English version of Windows, but I'll try to explain reproduction.
I like my icons on the desktop that will be organized, so I do not use auto arrange. Group in my own way specific icons. The left side of my screen is almost empty. My problem is that when I edit an Excel document that is located on the desktop, the icon moves the default location (left) of the screen. Here's how:
1. on your desktop, turn off the auto arrange. (right click on desktop-> menu 'View'-> point "auto arrange")
2. on the desktop right click somewhere on the right side of the screen and create a new Excel document. (right click on desktop-> menu 'new'-> point ' Microsoft Excel-document ')
3. make sure that the new document is NOT on the default location (left) of the screen. If, goto 1 or try to drag it to the right of the screen. :)
4. open the Excel document, that you just created and save it (with or without editing). (recording with CTRL + S, so NOT "Save as...") »).
5. open your desktop, again, by closing or minimizing the Excel document. The icon was moved to the location of the default icon.
I tried this with other documents, but only Excel documents seem to be moving
I use Windows 7 x 64 as well and when I open an Excel document which is somewhere in the middle of my screen, it creates a hidden file temporary Excel on the left side and this file is deleted when I close the original document. The original document remains in its original location.

I can't access my excel document corner to resize
Have you tried clicking on the green button? This should toggle the size of the window to fit the screen.
Another option... I don't know whether or not OS 10.9 has this ability, but move your cursor to the top of the document window and the cursor turns into an arrow pointing down. You can then drag from the top down to resize the window. Then you can drag the window to the top to get to the bottom.

Read a specific sheet in an excel document. Help, please!
First I start Excel and then I read a specific excel document that has 5 of the sheet and 1 sheet is active:
GetProjectDir (fileName);
strcat (fileName, "\\Logiciel_FH.xls");
error = Excel_WorkbooksOpen (ExcelWorkbooksHandle, NULL, fileName, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, & ExcelWorkbookHandle);
Get the sheets in the active workbook
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelAppHandle, NULL, Excel_AppSheets,
CAVT_OBJHANDLE, & ExcelSheetsHandle);
error = Excel_SheetsItem (ExcelSheetsHandle, NULL, CA_VariantInt (1), & ExcelWorksheetHandle);
The first sheet Active - should already be active
error = Excel_WorksheetActivate (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL);
After I write data in this sheet and start a macro-fonction I want to read the sheet number 4... so I tried to do, but yet it reads 1 sheet.)
error = CA_VariantSetCString (& MyCellRangeV, EXCEL_ARRAY_OF_CELLS);
error = Excel_WorksheetRange (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL, MyCellRangeV, CA_DEFAULT_VAL, & ExcelRangeHandle);
CA_VariantClear (& MyCellRangeV);
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelAppHandle, NULL, Excel_AppSheets,
CAVT_OBJHANDLE, & ExcelSheetsHandle);
error = Excel_SheetsItem (ExcelSheetsHandle, NULL, CA_VariantInt (4), & ExcelWorksheetHandle);
The first sheet Active - should already be active
error = Excel_WorksheetActivate (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL);
Make the range Active
error = Excel_RangeActivate (ExcelRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, NULL);
Ask the ith by jth value in the range that returns a shipment to a new range of single cell
error = Excel_RangeGetItem (ExcelRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, CA_VariantInt (12), CA_VariantInt (2), & MyVariant);
Get the pointer of SHIPPING
error = CA_VariantGetDispatch (& MyVariant, & MyDispatch);
Create a Range object pointer for SHIPPING
error = CA_CreateObjHandleFromIDispatch (MyDispatch, 0, & ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle);
Get the value of the range of simple cells
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, Excel_RangeValue2, CAVT_VARIANT, & MyVariant);
error = CA_VariantGetCString (& MyVariant, &d);)
printf ("%s\n", d);
CA_VariantClear (& MyVariant);
ClearObjHandle (& ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle);
Can you tell me where I'm wrong...? What should I do to make the reading of the number 4 sheet program?
I used some code that is very similar to yours in the past, with one exception, which is to close the handle to the worksheet active prior to acivating a new. In this case, the code should look like the following (note the red lines):
GetProjectDir (fileName);
strcat (fileName, "\\Logiciel_FH.xls");
error = Excel_WorkbooksOpen (ExcelWorkbooksHandle, NULL, fileName, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, CA_DEFAULT_VAL,
CA_DEFAULT_VAL, & ExcelWorkbookHandle);
Get the sheets in the active workbook
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelAppHandle, NULL, Excel_AppSheets, CAVT_OBJHANDLE, & ExcelSheetsHandle);
Handle to the first sheet
error = Excel_SheetsItem (ExcelSheetsHandle, NULL, CA_VariantInt (1), & ExcelWorksheetHandle);
The first sheet Active - should already be active
error = Excel_WorksheetActivate (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL);
error = CA_VariantSetCString (& MyCellRangeV, EXCEL_ARRAY_OF_CELLS);
error = Excel_WorksheetRange (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL, MyCellRangeV, CA_DEFAULT_VAL, & ExcelRangeHandle);
CA_VariantClear (& MyCellRangeV);
Turn the handle to the active worksheet
error = ClearObjHandle (& ExcelWorksheetHandle);
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelAppHandle, NULL, Excel_AppSheets, CAVT_OBJHANDLE, & ExcelSheetsHandle);
Is not necessary: you have not deleted variable ExcelSheetsHandle, which is still topical
Manage the fourth leaf
error = Excel_SheetsItem (ExcelSheetsHandle, NULL, CA_VariantInt (4), & ExcelWorksheetHandle);
Make the Active sheet
error = Excel_WorksheetActivate (ExcelWorksheetHandle, NULL);
Make the range Active
error = Excel_RangeActivate (ExcelRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, NULL);
Ask the ith by jth value in the range that returns a shipment to a new range of single cell
error = Excel_RangeGetItem (ExcelRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, CA_VariantInt (12), CA_VariantInt (2), & MyVariant);
Get the pointer of SHIPPING
error = CA_VariantGetDispatch (& MyVariant, & MyDispatch);
Create a Range object pointer for SHIPPING
error = CA_CreateObjHandleFromIDispatch (MyDispatch, 0, & ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle);
Get the value of the range of simple cells
error = Excel_GetProperty (ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle, & ErrorInfo, Excel_RangeValue2, CAVT_VARIANT, & MyVariant);
error = CA_VariantGetCString (& MyVariant, &d);)
printf ("%s\n", d);
CA_VariantClear (& MyVariant);
ClearObjHandle (& ExcelSingleCellRangeHandle);
As a side note, you don't use error checking and probably have disabled the break on errors in the library: you should have received an error when you try to access the new sheet: consider to add proper error management and be sure that in this case to clear all objects active before leaving the service.

Word and Excel files are saved in Word and Excel and in my images. If I delete the document of my images, it is also deleted in Word / Excel. I checked and all Word/Excel documents are in my pictures including documents several years ago.
Can someone tell me why this is happening so Ican break & he has not reproduce? Is this related to the theScan function? My husband scanned something recently
You have them saved to this location for some reason any. If you don't like that you have to move them to the correct location and stop then save in the wrong location.
Whenever you save something you must check if you save it in the correct location, of course.
Do not delete them. You can use UNDO and trash to get back those you've accidentally deleted recently.

Hey ramona Roberts,
Unfortunately, you have not saved the excel file on the hard disk of the computer after review.

The error may occur if the wrong printer is set as default, the printer driver printer is missing, or if there are conflicts in Device Manager.

I have archived the documents by using the "Check in" present in the Administration Panel. Even after having obtained archived documents are always be displayed if searched on the console of the ECM and their status is displayed as "liberated." That's why it would be even shown in the portal.
The main objective is to empty space by archiving the content so that the space can still be used.
Why is it shown? Y at - it another way to archive so that it doesn't get displayed if searched in the console of the Complutense University of MADRID and he leaves the space by getting archived?
Just to eliminate the obvious, when you start Actions - export... There's an option: "remove the revisions after archive successful". It has been verified? And if so, successful export has?

How can I get the direct link to an downloaded excel document?
I have this page with a link to an downloaded excel document:
How can I get the direct link to the document directly on the browser?
Is there a way to 'see' the document on the browser, rather than a direct download click the link?
I must also add that the download will be only good for the user, if they have excellent. Try to export your Excel form into a PDF and link to that instead. Then you will allow everyone to use, but also to see in a browser.
