Trying to create a document that updates information based on specific information in workbook
I have a client list, some with multiple job names, requests related to job and mode of receiving said info. Those are the headings to my cells in the excel spreadsheet. What I would like to do is auto populate the information in a document that would be a running tab of correspondence for that particular job. I need to know how to copy over information(requests, mode, date) based on a particular cell (job name). Is there a formula for this. The following are images of my work so far

Outlook interpreting CTRL+DEL as “Ignore Conversation” instead of deleting the next word.
This is new behavior that started yesterday. I use Control-Delete a lot while editing messages, but suddenly it started deleting & ignoring my email threads instead of editing the text.
Microsoft® Outlook® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2408 Build 16.0.17928.20114) 64-bit
I can’t find anything on this Googling around or looking through the Community posts. What changed? Or what did I change by accident? Where is the setting to disable this feature? The ONLY keyboard shortcut that I EVER want messing with my email threads (instead of just editing the text) is CTRL+ENTER to send.

RDP issues with 26280.5000
I have been testing Citrix out in my home lab on 2025 to be prepared when customers want it. I found that the latest 26280.5000 build caused issues on a machine I upgraded. I downloaded the latest ISO and built a new machine with this version. Everything worked fine and I was able to RDP to the console to administer it as I have a vgpu applied to it. As soon as I install the remote desktop role I can no longer RDP to the machine. I have tried from multiple machines and they attempt to connect and rdp manager just sits there waiting for the connection. If I login to the machine from the vcenter console and attempt to rdp to localhost it comes right up. I have tried removing the rdp role, disabling and re-enabling the rdp admin access, and nothing.

Excel formula for Ageing
Hi,
I am trying to come up with a formula to net down aged data but I am struggling!
This is a sample from my pivot, I want to run the formula alongside it and what I am trying to do is:
For customer 1 to net off the -735 from 4 Years+ with the 735 in 90-180 so it only shows 735 left in 60-90 days. Then when I refresh the pivot each month these will adjust and then the ageing formula will adjust alongside it.
Thanks,
James

Root directory path in SFTP Copy Pipeline
Hi There
Please could you help ?
I have a copy pipeline that uses an SFTP location as a source. The SFTP location has multiple folders however I need to read new daily files with changing filenames from the root.
This pipeline was running perfectly until a few days ago when ADF started trying to read from one of the folders instead of the root, despite the root being configured in the source config. I can see from the error message that the pipeline is failing as a result of pipeline reading from a folder instead of the root.
How do I specify the root in the source config of the copy pipeline ?
Thanks
Dom

Kerberos KDC Errors
Hello,
I have been testing Windows Server 2025 with AD DC role and sometimes in event log I can see error.
The Security Account Manager failed a KDC request in an unexpected way. The error is in the data field. The account name was and lookup type 0x108.
Just a note – I did not remove the account name; it is not just there, not even once.
I’m unable to connect it to some “action”, so it looks a bit random. In data field there is only C000000D (in words) which is every time the same. Event ID is 7.
Is this okay or anything to worry about?

Special character shortcuts working only on Microsoft Word but not in any other applications
During previous iterations of Windows, when I set special character keyboard shortcuts on Word (e.g.,
à, é), these shortcuts would be available on other applications like web browsers. I switched to a new laptop that ran on Windows 11 and set up keyboard shortcuts on Word but these would not work on other applications. Is there a fix for this?

How correctly use Simple Variable Mass 3DOF (Body Axes) block?
Hello,
As in the title, I need to simulate an aircraft mission with varying mass. In the Aerospace Blockset, I’ve so found the Simple Variable Mass (3DOF). I have some problems in interpreting these inertia definitions:
Empty inertia — Body inertia when fuel tank is full
0.5 (default) | scalar
Body inertia when the fuel tank is full, specified as a double scalar.
and
Full inertia — Full inertia
3.0 (default) | scalar
Full inertia of the body, specified as a scalar.
My concerns involves the difference between Empty and full inertia. From the documentation, they seem to be the same. Can anyone help me?

Simulink Variable Time Logging
Hi,
is it possible to get a simulink "to workspace" block to log the data with variable time steps? I have a model in which some parameters are used to send it to hardware and the testrig is basically controlled with my model. For some commands I send to the testrig it is not really useful to have the logged within the sample time I have for my model, for example some preparation steps when I change the temperature, which could take quite long. I tried to have the different sample times in a varaible in the base workspace and after the command in simulink/ stateflow is processed the variable is changed. I had the variable of the sample time in my "to workspace" block, and it seemed to work sometimes to refresh the block and it changed to a new sample time, but it kept it that way for the whole simulation. Do you have any suggestions on how I could do this or maybe a better way to do this?Hi,

Combine multiple restrictions in a question
Currently, while Microsoft Forms provides some validation options, the ability to set multiple conditions for a single question would enable users to create more complex and tailored forms. For example, combining restrictions such as requiring a specific format (like a Number) while also enforcing a character limit. Use Case: A form could require users to input their phone number validating that only numbers can be entered and reach a specific length (e.g., exactly “10” characters).
