Excel - Home Edition vs Standard

[Duncan McC]

I am going to buy a new Office 2007 version tomorrow. Mostly I use Excel because all my office task is based on Excel itself. I have decided to go with either 2007 Home Edition or 2007 Standard Edition. So can anyone please tell me what is difference between both this edition (keeping in mind Excel)?

Thank you for your helps.

There is not much difference between both these editions apart from few important tools. I mean the Standard 2007 version has more tools and supporting features such as stationery compared to Home Edition. Before you buy any of these suites I will recommend you to better try out their trial suites. Its completely free and you will understand what exactly you need.

I have the Home Edition of Excel. When I try to copy-paste from an Excel cell either by using ctrl-c or by using the mouse, it says I don't have privileges for Visual Basic for Applications. There are no macros in this spreadsheet, just numbers. Why is it inovoking VBA for a copy command?

Thanks

Have you tried CACLS. You have to be an ADMIN to change permissions.

Displays or modifies access control lists (ACLs) of files

CACLS filename [/T] [/E] [/C] [/G user:perm] [/R user [...]]

[/P user:perm [...]] [/D user [...]]

filename Displays ACLs.

/T Changes ACLs of specified files in

the current directory and all subdirectories.

/E Edit ACL instead of replacing it.

/C Continue on access denied errors.

/G user:perm Grant specified user access rights.

Perm can be: R Read

W Write

C Change (write)

F Full control

/R user Revoke specified user's access rights (only valid with /E).

/P user:perm Replace specified user's access rights.

Perm can be: N None

R Read

W Write

C Change (write)

F Full control

/D user Deny specified user access.

Wildcards can be used to specify more that one file in a command.

You can specify more than one user in a command.

The ACE does not apply to the current file/directory.
