MrExcel Seminar in Chicago on June 19, 2006

I will be bringing my entertaining Excel seminar to Chicago, IL on Monday June 19, 2006. If you are in the greater Chicagoland area, stop by for a informative morning about Excel.

Sponsored by the Chicago Chapter of the IIA, the cost is only $35 and includes a free copy of Learn Excel from MrExcel (a $40 value).

Complete details are here.

Record a Macro

On today's episode of Call for Help, Tracy Syrstad and I show the basics of recording a macro. Learn how to use the Relative Recording button to improve the chances that your macro will actually work.

MrExcel Softball Team Jumps Out to a 2-0 Win Streak

Playing in the Central Toronto Rec League, the MrExcel.com softball team has surprised everyone and jumped out to a 2-0 start in their season.

A complete wrap-up of the game can be found at http://www.mrexcel.com/softball.shtml

And, while it may not be as exciting as the Blue Jays vs. Orioles, I invite all readers to come to the May 30 game at 8PM at Pelmo Park in Toronto. Details are on the page above.

The one-millionth post at the message board

We reached a monumental milestone at MrExcel today - the one millionth post to the message board!

Now - I know that there is a pool running in the Lounge 2.0 for the one millionth post in Excel questions, but I thought it was pretty cool that we have it one million posts in the phpbb database.

(Long time readers will point out that there were 15k posts in our old posting software, so we really hit 1 million a while ago...)

If you follow this thread, it was HotPepper's post that was the 1 millionth post at the board. To celebrate, I will send HotPepper his choice of any book or CD from the MrExcel store.

And - to start us off on the next million, just one minute later, Kristy posted the 1,000,001th post - the second Von Pookie post in this thread.
