Changes in version 4.1.3

Published: July 19, 2007 (latest revision May 29, 2008)
reference id: QA0155

Finished

On September 24, 2007 the new version 4.2.0 is released. Download

I have changed the version number from 4.1 to 4.2 because the new version of ASAP Utilities is now nicely integrated into the Excel 2007 menu (ribbon).

Update information

At this moment there are a few known bugs in version 4.1.2
These have been fixed in version 4.2.0 which I'm currently developing and of which you can download a pre-release:
ASAPUtilities_setup_4-1-3-RC6.exe 1.8 MB (September 19, 2007)

Bugs fixed

  • Format » The paper saver (split columns)...
    Fixed the error on start.
    Error 401: Application-defined or object-defined error
    Error 401 Paper saver / split columns utility
  • Fill » List filenames in folder...
    Error fixed when reading files from cd-rom or DVD (Last Accessed date not available).
  • Export » Export selection as HTML table to clipboard...
    Fixed 'Runtime error 91: Object variable or With block variable not set.
  • Numbers » Convert "textnumbers" to numbers
    Fixed a bug where fractions such as 1/2 were converted to dates. Fractions will now be detected and converted to fractions you can calculate with.
  • Export » Export selected chart or range as image (file)...
    Several minor improvements. Fixed the bug in combination with Excel 2007. The image quality however in Excel 2007, especially in combination with Windows Vista still needs some improvement compared to previous Excel version. I'm working on a solution for this.
  • Numbers » Round numbers (not formatting, but changing)...
    Fixed a bug that appears in combination with the Norwegian and Czech regional settings. Somehow Excel/ASAP Utilities didn't see the numbers as actual numbers and therefore the utility ignored them. (I could only reproduce this bug with these two regional language settings).
  • Improved worksheet fuctions
    ASAPSumByCellColor()
    ASAPCountByCellColor()
    ASAPSumByFontColor()
    ASAPCountByFontColor()
    If you work with more than 2 decimals the utility isn't 100% accurate after the fifth decimal of the result. This is corrected in this version.
    These functions can now use a cell-addres to specify the color in stead of only using the colorindex. Furthermore the accuracy of these functions is improved.
    So for example if you have a range of cells with 10 green cells you want to sum you  can use the formula either as
    =ASAPSumByCellColor(A1:E24;4)
    or if cell D4 contains the color you can use:
    =ASAPSumByCellColor(A1:E24;D4)
    Count or sum cells based on their color
  • Several minor bugfixes

  • Sheets » Freeze panes on multiple sheets at once
    Freeze panes on all or all selected sheets at once, based on your current selection.
    Normally in Excel you can only do this one sheet at a time. With this utility you can now for example freeze the first row on all sheets at once.

    Unfreeze panes on all or all selected sheets at once.
