• Messed up gets worksheet formatting when you use the update to add additional sheets

  Someone had problems with cfspreadsheet where a sheet has formatting issues when the sheet is added as an extra sheet by using the update action, while the same sheet looks good when the leaf is the first or the only sheet added using the action of writing?

  I use 10 CF.

  For what it's worth, according to some other posts that I found here, I've reconfigured my code so that it creates an object of unique spreadsheet with multiple sheets, rather than objects of individual worksheet for each sheet, then he makes a single call to write this object on the disk. That seems to have solved most if not all of my formatting issues. The basic takeaway I suppose is do not use the update action if you can possibly avoid it.

  IM using windows xp profesional can I upgrade to windows 7 and what would be the cost? what I have to put all my files on an external drive then uninstall windows xp then put in windows 7 then put back my files? is that how its done? Thank you.

  First the cost, you must know if your hardware can support Windows 7

  In General win 7 should a minimum og 1 gig of ram (for 32 bit) or 2 for 64-bit, and it needs a video card 256 MB or greater.

  If your less and can not be updated it may be best to start thinking about a new computer.
