I would like to move a new email, opened in a window by itself, to another folder. If I have the email open, I have to close it and go back to the folder list of all the emails to highlight the one I just had open to move it to a folder. How can I take these actions for the email when I'm reading it in a full window? I should add that I don't want to move the email to the Archive (that is possible from the open window). I want to move it to a folder I have created. Thanks for any input!

I recorded a macro and added a series to a chart. This is what was recorded. ActiveChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(1).Name = "=""ChCp25g1.X""" ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(1).XValues = "==D6_TRK.xlsm!ChCp25g1.X" ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(1).Values = "==D6_TRK.xlsm!ChCp25g1.Y" Obviously the extra "=" sign is not correct. (Where you see "==" in the above recorded code). When i corrected it to one = sign, the macro could be played back and modified to put the adding of new Chart Series' in a loop.Can you get this fixed? I think i ran

I have a pivot table which shows costs usually in $ but some sections need to be in £. The simplest approach I would think would be to have the pivot field .NumberFormats in $ while vba would change the CELL formats where needed to £. I have this working except that the setting of the CELL .NumberFormats is changing the .PivotField formats somehow.

Starting approximately a week ago (April 17, 2025) I began having problems in the Microsoft Word app for the desktop Mac OS. This seems to have coincided with an update. I'll be working in MS word with no problems for about 10 minutes, then, all of a sudden, any formatting changes (bold italic, using the styles to format a heading, etc.) don't immediately appear when I make them. Instead, they only appear when I click somewhere else on the page. It doesn't matter if I use the ribbon to format, or keyboard shortcuts. Any formatting doesn't take affect until I click somewhere else. Sometimes the
