You can copy and paste the whole thing into a new sheet, and correct the errors that way.


that wont clear the protection on the locked cells

I recently used a way to see what the password was in excel. Might be worth googling? Helped me unlock a password-protected spreadsheet.

Even using layered special pastes?

Paste Values, formulas etc but not formatting?

I find it amusing that Open Office just ignores password protection on XL spread sheets and lets anyone unlock cells.

There are utilities to unlock or find the password.

That's just an avalanche of FAIL.

Looks like it was the cameraman's first launch, but why they let him stand there is a big question. The security / H&S should have shooed him away before the ship went down the ramp.

L'Atomo's fuel tank has developed a leak. Corrosion along the seam. Cost of a new one, more than the car's worth if the usual supplier is anything to go by.

However, a question on a relevant forum came back with a supplier on eBay at a much more reasonable price - around 10 per cent of the bigger people. L'Atomo lives to fight another day!

(I know, fail/win. What can I do? *shrug*)

Is that valuation with fuel or not? ;)

Kinda fail. I've started going back to the gym recently and have been using an iphone app to log my workouts. Last week, I did a bench press using 15kg. Today I tried dumbbell bench press with 8kg dumbbells. Too easy. Was going to go up but the next lot were in use so jumped to 16kg dumbbells. Struggled but managed to do the sets.
