The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Need Excel VB code to Edit/Display Stock Trading Journal data in a Spreadsheet

Asked by coderlen in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Visual Basic Programming, Spreadsheet Software

Tags: trading, excel, stock, vb, code

I have a stock trading journal, to which I have added about 30 columns of data. I use this journal extensively in my trading, but it's too unwieldy because I can't see all the columns at once. It would be handy to have a nice GUI interface to view and edit all the data in one window. Then I would like to be able to scroll through each row and view all the information about each trade in the GUI window.

I have considerable programming experience, and I am comfortable with Visual Basic coding in Excel. I have searched the Web for software to assist me, and I found a spreadsheet which I modified by adding one column. Here is the link to the modified spreadsheet, so that you can have some idea of what I found on the Web:

Download link http://upload2.net/page/download/KtU55UVsjVTjFip/Mulitple+Column+List+Box+4+Columns.xls.html

This is certainly a step in the right direction. I could take this software and work it into something useful for me, but I thought I'd turn to the Experts for help, because that spreadsheet is only for 4 columns. Also, it needs a variable added to allow, say, 30 columns, instead of hard-coding the number of columns.

I see the solution as a choice between one of the following:
1) Modify the code I found to allow for 30 columns (Good)
2) Find other software with a nicer-looking interface which allows for more columns (Better)
3) Find a Trading Journal solution already done which allows for multiple columns (Best)

I think solution #3 is not going to happen, as I have Googled for it and not found anything.

I'm not asking anybody to code up the solution. I wouldn't ask you to do my homework. Just a little helping hand is all I need. If I could get something closer to what I need, then I could modify it to edit and display the data in my spreadsheet. Thanks.
