So, the particular brand of dvd-r won't play on my machine -- does this mean that if I found somebody to copy the dvds to a brand that does - that it would work?
That seems a little too simple.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

More likely is that the discs weren't properly finalized -- non-finalized DVDs will sometimes play on the machine that created them, but no others.

Well, the machine that played them over the weekend was not the machine that created them.

I have an Excel table filled with ID numbers. On the website they were copy-pasted from, they are links. On the Excel table, they are still links, and it's making it a bitch to move the data around without accidentally opening up browser windows. How can I make Excel forget about the link information?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That seems to work only one cell at a time, and I've got 165 items here. Any way to do it in one step?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You could try pasting it into Notepad, saving that, and opening the resulting file in Excel, which should then guide you through setting the column break-points.

I just did it and it worked. You highlight the whole area, hit copy, then Paste Special and click values. As long as you don't move your cursor, it will paste the values in the same place you copied from.

I tried that, but the links are still active.
