Posting files for review

Where is a free service that I can upload an xlsx file so I can reference it here for a question?

Assuming you can't simply post a screenshot, you could use OneDrive, Dropbox, or Box to name but three. All have free accounts.

Thanks, I thought maybe there was a preferred method for the BBS.

The preferred method is screenshots where possible so that everything is contained within the forum, but I appreciate that is not always practical.

.. I tried some of the suggestions here: http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/about-board/805962-filesnack-closed-down-alternatives.html
.. But came back to using the free Box and dropbox in that order. Filesnack I had found the best. But it stopped.
. Some prominent members seem to recommend Box( Box Net, )
If you use it Remember to select Share after uploading and give us the link they provide.

...... maybe there was a preferred method for the BBS.

… Just occurred to me that BBS was probably referring to Bulletin Board System. I guess the correct answer then to that would be “select the Attachments icon in the Editor window.”

. This icon has been specifically disabled at MrExcel

…. It was probably something that was important to emphasize in such a thread that not having the ability to attach files is a very important characteristics of MrExcel. The question is continually asked within normal Threads, (especially I notice by new members, often “1 Thread” members). Some consideration should be given to reading the many discussions on this, even again specifically recently
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/about-board/830361-board-wish-list.html
. In brief, the policy I believe is that full use should be made of the available Screenshot (NOT images) and Code Tools. This is very important to encourage a good clear picture to be given in the Thread of what is going on for everyone’s benefit..
. Only when really needed as an extra should files be exchanged.
