Problem using HTML Maker

[midsession]

Hello MrExcel
I've loaded up the HTML Maker at work but my first attempt at posting was too big. However when I try to recreate the HTML file from the spreadsheet I am unable to generate a html file. In particular I am no longer getting any popups to tell me whether I have been successful (In other words there is no message box corresponding to step 6 of 'How do I use this add-in' on the FAQ). I've checked for pop-up lines (they appeared the first time but not since) and I've just run home to load the add-in on my laptop (same problem here). Is there some other setting I should be checking?

First I've heard anything like that. Hmm.

Did you check any popup blocker settings?

Permission on the sheet is Unrestricted Access, I also had to set Trust Acces to VB Project as I was getting that error. Other than that I'll need a few pointers ...

 

[Von Pookie]

Nono---I meant on your browser. I thought you meant you weren't seeing the popups in IE or whatever browser you use.

I've never heard of the msgboxes not appearing when running the addin, though. Complete shot in the dark, but did you somehow set DisplayAlerts to false before you ran the add-in a second time?

I suppose you could remove it and try installing it again, see if that "resets" things.

accursed thing ...

I've got rid of all my other add-ins, downloaded htmlmaker 2.42 again and accessed it from another source directory. Still no luck - the last message I see is 'Please select range' ...

Maybe I can send this thing on so that you could take a look ...

Sorry, I'm afraid I have no ideas on what the issue could be. The only thing I can think of is to contact Colo and see if he has any idea.

Another idea would be to try a different version of the HTML Maker--version 2.41 and HTML Maker Light are also available on Colo's page.

If you *do* find out what the problem is/was, please let me know/reply to this thread. I can add it to the FAQ and if someone else has the same issue they could find this thread

Hello,

Yes, you should be checking out this post:

Edit: You're not even getting that far, it seems? Are you selecting your range in the input box? I.e., have you followed step 3? Here's what the dialog looks like in 'Lite' but there should be a similar one on the regular version:

You need to go through the toolbar menu to get to this point...

Good news - I got Lite to work
Bad news - it still just dishes out script gibberish even though the message said there was plenty space left

Good news - Try looking at it now.
