Journal of a guy who loves Excel

Not only about Excel, but also daily stuff to kill my boredom.

The Phantom of the Opera



The other day, I went to the Osaka Shiki theater which is located in the HERBIS PLAZA ENT building to view a musical The Phantom of the Opera with my wife. I'd just like to start off by telling you that the famous catchphrase "It seems that The Phantom of the Opera by the Shiki Theatre Company is great." is not true. I felt that it's just awesome!
Fortunately for us, because we were seated in the second row center, we could hear players' breathing and all the line without miss a line.

Its sorrowful story and wonderful dramatic interpretation moved us to tears. After the performance, they were given our endless standing ovation. If chance should serve, I'd like to go again.

先日妻と一緒に大阪のハービスエント内にある四季劇場にて劇団四季のミュージカル、オペラ座の怪人を観劇してきました。まず、「劇団四季のオペラ座の怪人は凄いらしい」というキャッチフレーズは嘘です。「凄いらしい」どころではなくて「最高に凄い!」だと感じました。

座席も前から2列目ということもあり、役者さんの息遣いや細かな台詞まで感じることができました。切ないストーリーと素晴らしい舞台演出に感動の涙が止まりませんでした。終劇後は会場全員でのスタンディングオーベーションの嵐でした。
またチャンスがあれば行きたいです。

Ninja



Since Andrew, who is one of my best friend, has been home on a visit with his family, we decided to meet when it is convenient for both of us. Accede to a request from his son, we visited Iga Ninja Mura in Mie pref. It took about 3 to 4 hours by train from Kobe, but we didn't feel bored because we had a great time to talk about recent event, Excel and Ninja! We made a round of visits at there in Ninja clothes.

親友のアンドリューが家族とともに里帰りしてるので、都合のいいときに会うことにしました。息子さんのリクエストに応えて三重県にある伊賀忍者村へ。神戸からは3〜4時間かかったんですが、近況やエクセルの事、忍者の事を話し合ったりしてたので飽きませんでした。忍者村では忍者の衣装に着替えて色々見て回りました。

iDesktop.tv




携帯でYouTubeを見ることが出来るのはiPhoneだけの特権ではありません。
コンバートさえしてやればあなたの携帯でも簡単に見ることが出来るのです。
でもコンバートが面倒!そこで私が使ってるiDesktop.tvを紹介します。
ここではYouTubeのファイルをお好きな形式でダイレクトに保存できます。
便利ですよね!

A special privilege of having an iPhone is being able to watch YouTube directly, but you can watch YouTube movies on your mobile if the files have been converted. But it's too much trouble for converting file format. So I use the iDesktop.tv regularly.
You can save YouTube files as popular file format that can be played on your mibile.That's very handy, check it out.

reawarded

In the first of January 2009, I was reawarded as the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional for Business Productivity-Excel.
This awarad is on a yearly basis, every year I'm wondering if I can get it again, but fortunately, I've been awarded 6 times since 2004 including this award. I'll go with Excel one more year.

As a gift from Microsoft, I got this crystal glass plaque this year.
I'd prefer a not degital stuff because the MP3 player which I got as a gift from MSFT last year was broken before I bring it into use. It was a shame!

What is Microsoft Most Valuable Professional

I have a SLR (single-lens reflex camera) made by Canon and a compact type one made by Nikon, but I've never used a twin lens reflex camera.
The other day, I received this type of camera as a birthday present from my close friend.
Gee! I've never received a present this great before and it seems a suitable gift for me because I love to take a picture.
The enclosed photo album is very cool design and a book titled "The day you were born" gives me happy emotional feeling.
Anyway, it was absolutely a big surprise and I'm wondering why she knew what I wanted, nevertheless I didn't know what I wanted.
Thanks a lot, much appreciate it and I'll give this camera a try!

If you're interested in camera stuff, you may have a question about what is a twin lens reflex camera. This link might give you an answer. Japanese and English, both languages are available.

A bare tank

It was beautiful, can I say this, it looked like a garden covered with moss. In fact, I don't hate moss but I know that it's not good for an aquarium.

To keep the water condition, I took measures for moss control such as being associated with an increased frequency of changing water, shorten the duration of lighting, but a successful outcome wasn't achieved. The other day, my wife suggested me that all the stuff attached moss in the aquarium should be replaced. My mind was made up by her suggestion then the main aquarium tank became like this. Generally, this kind of tank is called a bare tank. It looked like howling wilderness, so I put a driftwood in there.



Here comes the puffer the fast gun!

A 20 inch wide display


Insted of my old 17 inch square display, I bought a 20 inch wide display as you can see in this background of this article. I think that the monitor I got is a top-quality monitor at a very reasonable price. On some reviews, written like this.

This one has been excellent in all respects except gaming. With a slow response time of 16 ms, I have experienced much "ghosting" (Slow update of the picture) in all my game.

Becuse I won't use this for gaming and watching movies, I totally ignord the avobe opinion and it seems okay with me. All the stuff in my room such as a light for aquarium, a wall lack, a watch and a jacket case are in white, I'd like white one. So this is good in appearance.

This is the first time using a wide type monitor for me, I feel it's very handy and practical when I write some programing code.




















Greetings for the new year

Colo aka Masaru - one of the Microsoft MVP for Excel

WEB SITE



My name is Masaru Kaji and I am from Kobe, Japan. I was born on 9th Jan 197x. I'm a computer system administrator for an equipment manufacturer. My line is operation AS400 server and Windows2000 server. I sometimes write VBA code for the company. It was in March 2000, that I first met Microsoft Excel. In my job, my superior forced me into creating something like an address book. At that time, my main machine was not a personal computer but a word processor. And I had not used a personal computer for about 10 years. Until then also I had never used any spreadsheet software.. The first time I used Excel, I remember thinking 'Wow! What a cool application it is!, If I were able to use it as I want, it makes my job easier.'

Back to the subject about my work, I was making some easy tables that has similar data, but it made me bored because I have to input same thing again and again. I am not a patient character. :) When I was doing something with Excel, a menu named 'Record New Macro' was found, and by using this menu, I discovered unexpectedly that my operation was recorded.

I could imagine the function from the meaning of a word in the code generated automatically somehow, so I made some macros for my job without installing VBA help. In fact I did NOT know how to see Help file.

Gradually, I had come to want to do that was not possible to do in a 'Record New Macro' alone and I determined installing a VBA help file. (I said goodbye to my slow to act.) But the descriptions written in Help file were too difficult for me to understand. Then, in order to solve the question, which I cannot understand by Help, I posted my question to Japanese QA site on www.


And as you know, I'm not good at English, so in order to learn English and to learn technical terms, I begun to post to MrExcel. I am still learning... :)

In 2004, I was nominate as a Microsoft Excel MVP, and in 2005, fortunately I was re-nominated again.
