New article: Importing Text Tiles In An Excel sheet
If you've ever tried to open a text file, you have probably used the Text import wizard. If you have ever opened a CSV file, you have probably noted you can't set up how it gets imported. The text import wizard does not start for these file types. What if you have the situation where you get files with similar structure, which need the same text import settings over and over? How do you import the data from those files into the same worksheet each time, without having to re-define the import settings over and over again? I'll tell you.

Updated article: Registering a User Defined Function with Excel.
To enable showing argument descriptions for Excel User Defined Functions (UDF), we had to go through many hoops and use wizardry and trickery. Excel 2010 has now enabled us to use a plain and simple VBA command to do exactly that. I have updated the article to include a how-to for Excel 2010.

New article: Using controls on worksheets
Apart from input cells chained to cells with formulas, there are other options in Excel to make your spreadsheet model more interactive. You can add option buttons, check boxes and list boxes to your sheet to offer choices to the user. Moreover, you can add scroll bars and spinners to quickly control values in cells. These elements are called controls because they enable your user to control the content of your model. This article shows how to put controls to use in your model.

Nieuw artikel: Het gebruik van Besturingselementen
Naast invoercellen die zijn gekoppeld aan cellen met formules, beschikt Excel over nog meer mogelijkheden om een werkblad interactief te maken. Zo is het mogelijk om aan een werkblad keuzerondjes, selectievakjes, tekstvakjes en dergelijke toe te voegen. Deze elementen worden ook wel besturingselementen genoemd, omdat ze de gebruiker in staat stellen Excel te "besturen". Dit artikel laat zien hoe deze elementen gebruikt kunnen worden.
