Thanks to PSN for posting a bunch of great action shots.  Here are a few of my favorite (because they’re me!)

Auto Populate Last Saved Date in an Excel Spreadsheet

 in Tech  tagged excel / macro / productivity / tips / vba by

I have a shared excel spreadsheet that gets updated frequently.  I wanted an easy way to auto-populate a cell with the last updated date.  I did a little searching and came across a pretty straight forward VBA Macro.  With a little bit of modification, cell A1 always shows the correct last updated date.

Excel > Developer > Visual Basic > New Module

Function LastSavedDate()
LastSavedDate = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties(12)
End Function

Excel > Cell A1

=CONCATENATE(“Last update: “,TEXT(LastSavedDate(),”mm/dd/yyyy”))

 

Simple as that!

Make Me A Baseball Card is Live!

 in Softball / Tech  tagged development / softball / software / webproject by

I’ve always been a coding tinker-er but most of my personal projects never really “went live”.  This year I made a new years resolution to design, develop and deploy an app all the way through.

I’m proud to announce that I flipped the switch and my first personal project went live last night!  You can check it out here: MakeMeABaseballcard.com  There were lots of late nights and lots of coffee.  It was like having a 2nd part-time job.  Whew…

What is it?

MakeMeABaseballcard.com lets someone track their baseball stats and print out their very own baseball card.

When they click the Print Card link, we open a new window and they can print their card directly through the browser’s print functionality.  Here’s my printed card.

What’s next?

There are a TON of things I want to add.  Keep an eye on the facebook page for new features!
