When I use the "new workbook" option as the start document, the add-in loads automatically but when i add my own test file it doesn't load. I have to go to manually start it in the insert tab.
How do i fix it?
I figured it out:
Simply click save in Excel after loading the app from the insert menu.
My visual basic editor only allows me to type in one column. In other words, only one letter per line. Please see the image below. How do I fix this? (visual basic for mac)
This is a bug in Excel. To fix this, you simply need to update Excel. Click "Help" > "Check for Updates", then close Excel. Next, click the "Check for Updates" button in the Microsoft AutoUpdate window, and select for Excel to update. After updating, when you reopen Excel the problem will be fixed.
Never mind, found the answer here :

MS has no plans to push the VB editor forward on the Mac...Wonder if they put that on the glossy brochure for office 2016?
If I click control-click a hyperlink in the text editor, it opens the URL in a new Visual Studio tab. I would rather the link open outside Visual Studio in my system's default web browser (happens to be Google Chrome). How can I arrange this?
I'm talking about hyperlinks in code comments.
I am using Visual Studio 2012. I found a similar question dated 2009, however the accepted answer (a macro) doesn't work in Visual Studio 2012.
Frustratingly, this isn't possible in Visual Studio 2012 or 2013.

There is an extension Open in External Browser.
I'm using Visual Studio 2013 Professional. It works for me.
To install:
Go to "Tools" - "Extension and Updates..."
Choose "Online" - "Visual Studio Gallery" on left pane
Type in search field "open in external browser"
Click "Install"
It seems that it is not possible (except if your default browser is IE, so you would not know the difference).
As Anand wrote above, you could ctrl + right click on the link and then select open link in external window (you cannot do that on the start page, only on an opened webpage) but it still opens the window in IE no matter what your default browser is.
Even if you go to TOOLS --> Options --> Environment --> Web Browser, you will notice that it indicated that IE and the internal VS web browser are siblings.
So just copy the URL from the address bar and paste it to your default browser (it's not too much trouble in my opinion).
In VS 2012 Professional, on the toolbar next to the run debug icon, is the word 'Start' which can be expanded. When expanded you have the option to 'Open with...' and you can select the browser to open the web project up in. It does not run the debugger, it only opens the website in the selected browser. (toolbar > Start (expanded) > Open with...)
You can use the default browser switcher application if you are using Visual Studio 2010 for this kind of situation:
On your tool bar menu select "TOOLS"
Then from options choose "EXTENSION Manager"
It will open the extension manager window in the left hand side there are options choose the "Online Gallery" option
In Online Gallery search for "WoVS Default Browser Switcher"
Download it and Install it
After download restart VS
Hope this works best for you
I found a way to change the default browser for all actions in Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web. It's documented here:
By default, Visual Studio uses your default browser to test pages. To use a different browser or Page Inspector, right-click [an .aspx] page in [the] Solution Explorer and then click [...] Browse With [, which] lets you select a browser from a list, add new browsers to the list, or set one as the default browser. (The default browser setting here applies only to the Visual Studio environment and not to Windows.)
This also changes the default browser for F5'ing an MVC project, because I'm used to closing IE to stop debugging. When I let Visual Studio use my system's default browser, I first have to switch back to it from my browser to stop debugging, because closing the browser tab doesn't.
Unfortunately it still doesn't open links in comments in a browser.
I don't actually know what you mean under hyperlink, but you can easily make VS2012 working with another browser by simply.. uninstalling IE9 (Control Panel->Software->Windows components->bye bye IE9).
Well I found a workaround that is not so clean :P
Add a .html file to your project
Open the new .html file and click inside the editor.
Now Goto 'File' > 'Browse With...' from the Visual Studio Top Menu.
In the 'Browse With' Window, select the desired browser and click
the 'Set as Default' button.
Click the Browse button to set the new default selection.
This is what you have to do:
Go to the standard menu toolbar
Click on 'Add or Remove Buttons'
Tick the 'Debug Target' option
VS 2012 -->> File -->> Browse With -- >> Select Browser -->> Click on "set Default" Button -->> Now Click "Browse" Button
Go thru this setting...
Hope this will help you
I have an RDLC file that opens as text only (xml) not in the designer,
how can I force it back to default to open with the designer. (I need to go back and forth).
I swear I saw this on Stack already, but for the google of me I can't find it.
This problem comes when we change the default settings for any file type in visual studio.
Follow the steps given below to fix such issues:
You can right click on the file!
Select open with
Click on Report Designer.
Click on 'Set as Default'
Click OK
You should be all set now. It will now always open in Report Designer.
I just had this issue...
I resolved by adding a new Report to the project, which opened in the designer.
After the designer opened correctly, the existing reports also opened in the designer as not as XML.
When I open a XSD file in the designer the file loads but does not display properly. I can scroll the window like the file is there but the 'Please wait while loading...' dialog does not disappear. If a table is clicked in the designer it is show and I can make changes. If VS is minimized then maximized, whatever is displayed in the XSD Designer until a table is clicked in the designer. I need this fixed so any information will be greatly appreciated.
