Re: Margin of Safety Calculator for MSN Money
Hi guys, I've been monitoring this thread and watching it develop -- I am sorry that some (hopefully not all) folks are having trouble with the spreadsheet.
I can't say that I have experienced any of these errors myself so at this time it is difficult to diagnose the problem. I am running windows xp professional, and excel for office 2003. I just downloaded a fresh copy of the spreadsheet from the original post of this thread - and everything seemed to be in order for the handful of symbols I ran through it. Oh and if you are having trouble with the spreadsheet, try re-downloading it from the original post of this thread. This will ensure that the spreadsheet you are using isn't corrupt.
I'll continue to monitor this thread and hopefully someone can track down the issue and post about it here. Perhaps it is some coding that can be worked out and implemented in new update. On the other hand, if it turns out to be a certain combination of security settings or perhaps just software version, I can at least include some sort of instructions/notation on the spreadsheet itself to help avoid unnecessary confusion.
To those monitoring this thread, it may be helpful if you can drop a quick line to let us know whether or not the spreadsheet is working for you, and what versions of windows and excel you are using. If you have been having problems, please add any additional information you think may be relevant. If you have trouble with certain ticker symbols, be sure to report these so others have a chance to take a look.
Sorry for the trouble folks, together I'm sure we can work this out!
