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!

How to add custom images to custom macro toolbar in Excel

Asked by hsrstud in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Microsoft Office Suite

Tags: Microsoft Office, Excel, macro

I have the following code saved as an Excel 2003 add-in (.xla), which creates a custom toolbar for macro buttons I have created (in this example,"Trim from the left" and "Trim from the right"). I'm wondering if it is possible to use custom images for these macro buttons.  If so, how can I copy the images, since I'm using an add-in to create the toolbar?

Thank you.
