CoPilot in MS Word

I opened Word yesterday to discover that it now contains CoPilot. It follows you as you type and if you have a personal Microsoft 365 account, you can't turn it off. You will be given 60 AI credits per month and you can't opt out of it.

The only way to banish it is to revert to an earlier version of Office. There is lot of conflicting information and overly complex guides out there, so I thought I'd share the simplest way I found.

How to revert back to an old version of Office that does not have CoPilot

This is fairly simple, thankfully, presuming everything is in the default locations. If not you'll need to adjust the below for where you have things saved.

Click the Windows Button and S to bring up the search box, then type cmd. It will bring up the command prompt as an option. Run it as an administrator.

Paste this into the box at the cursor: cd "\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ClickToRun"

Hit Enter

Then paste this into the box at the cursor: officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.17726.20160

Hit enter and wait while it downloads and installs.

VERY IMPORTANT. Once it's done, open Word, go to File, Account (bottom left), and you'll see a box on the right that says Microsoft 365 updates. Click the box and change the drop down to Disable Updates.

This will roll you back to build 17726.20160, from July 2024, which does not have CoPilot, and prevent it from being installed.

If you want a different build, you can see them all listed here. You will need to change the 17726.20160 at step 4 to whatever build number you want.

This is not a perfect fix, because while it removes CoPilot, it also stops you receiving security updates and bug fixes.

Switching from Office to LibreOffice

At this point, I'm giving up on Microsoft Office/Word. After trying a few different options, I've switched to LibreOffice.

You can download it here for free: https://www.libreoffice.org/

If you like the look of Word, these tutorials show you how to get that look:

www.howtogeek.com/788591/how-to-make-libreoffice-look-like-microsoft-office/

www.debugpoint.com/libreoffice-like-microsoft-office/

If you've been using Word for awhile, chances are you have a significant custom dictionary. You can add it to LibreOffice following these steps.

First, get your dictionary from Microsoft

Go to Manage your Microsoft 365 account: account.microsoft.com.

One you're logged in, scroll down to Privacy, click it and go to the Privacy dashboard.

Scroll down to Spelling and Text. Click into it and scroll past all the words to download your custom dictionary. It will save it as a CSV file.

Open the file you just downloaded and copy the words.

Open Notepad and paste in the words. Save it as a text file and give it a meaningful name (I went with FromWord).

Next, add it to LibreOffice

Open LibreOffice.

Go to Tools in the menu bar, then Options. It will open a new window.

Find Languages and Locales in the left menu, click it, then click on Writing aids.

You'll see User-defined dictionaries. Click New to the right of the box and give it a meaningful name (mine is FromWord).

Hit Apply, then Okay, then exit LibreOffice.

Open Windows Explorer and go to C:\Users\[YourUserName]\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\wordbook and you will see the new dictionary you created. (If you can't see the AppData folder, you will need to show hidden files by ticking the box in the View menu.)

Open it in Notepad by right clicking and choosing 'open with', then pick Notepad from the options.

Open the text file you created at step 5 in 'get your dictionary from Microsoft', copy the words and paste them into your new custom dictionary UNDER the dotted line.

Save and close.

Reopen LibreOffice. Go to Tools, Options, Languages and Locales, Writing aids and make sure the box next to the new dictionary is ticked.

If you use LIbreOffice on multiple machines, you'll need to do this for each machine.

Please note: this worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, check you've followed each step correctly, and try restarting your computer. If it still doesn't work, I can't provide tech support (sorry).

[crystalverse-project]

Crystalverse!Dan first reference

dear princess celestia i am so scared and frightened

(note: i don't have all that much confidence in my art but i do try my best. all i know is self taught and out of books)

far away in the dantdm multiverse...there is the crystalverse

character design: (i love the way dan's skin is made cause it can be basically anything you want)

i was thinking of the very early old art that was on the first t shirts and mugs and hoodies and stuff (i was too young to get them when i first started watching him and i wish i could get one of the shirts) and the youtooz figures where has has a hoodie jacket.

he wears a shirt and tie because he's a fancy boi ok. the shirt is short sleeve and the white cuffs are part of the jacket

because of some time distortion thing from being so distant in the multiverse (that's my story and i'm sticking to it) he's 22. if you ask him his birthday he can tell you the day and month without issue but the year just comes out in all this static noise...

he has autism and anxiety, and is ftm and bisexual. and he's dating his universe's trayaurus. there will be no burning of any more gay flags istfg

full name is daniel andrew everton. just to drive home that this isn't the youtuber himself if i haven't made it clear yet (is this something you have to clarify? or is it just a given? i feel like i'll get corrected if i do or don't help this project isn't new but posting about it is for me. i mean i know obviously minecraft's not fkin real but idk where people draw the line.)

personality: overall kind, understanding, caring to those he bonds with, INSANELY protective. (like if anyone or anything threatens trayaurus or grim that thing is dead. it's happened) since he moved to the lab he's found a talent for science and inventing that he had no idea he had and now he's studying to be a doctor the same as trayaurus. (all the youtuber characters are just normal people, not big celebrities. if he went down the street in plain clothes nobody would notice him. good for him cause he's shy)

what i'm thinking is all the people who would be youtubers in this world or a different dan universe are normal people and normal people are youtubers in their place

anyway he did have friends in the city he lived in before but he's very anxious around people he doesn't know. he's happier in the lab with just a small circle of people he knows.

he can also be very reckless, doing things without thinking or making up unneccessary solutions to problems that end up backfiring. he's especially reckless when he's riding his minecart (that further down) and he has a lot of cuts and bruises on his arms and legs, which he's awkward about because it might look like something else

some objects: main weapon is his enchanted diamond sword, has sharpness V and unbreaking III. he has trayaurus' name written on it because he thinks of defending him when he uses it.

he actually has a diamond minecart that he brings around with him and rides in and not just a trophy in the treasure room, this one is more like it was in mcsm and the tube heroes toy (anyone still have those?) as in an iron minecart decorated with diamonds. he keeps it in a key, he presses the button and it shoots out light and there it is. it was his first real invention/project he worked on himself, more of a minecart converted to a minature car. it goes zoom zoom and it doesn't need rails

for all the ways csv!dan is different to other universes' dan he still loves drinking tea. i'm pretty sure they all do. this is his special blue mug, trayaurus has a co-ordinating green one.

not on the ref sheet seperate cause he's already wearing them: his goggles, they go beyond an accessory or safety equipment, they're also his comfort object and if he isn't wearing them/doesn't know where they are he starts to panic and he can't work. he actually DOES wear them (over his eyes) when he's doing experiments or battling. trayaurus gave him them when they first became friends, and entirely by accident, they were in a box buried under machine parts and packing peanuts

his right elbow pad has a chip inside it that gets him through the doors of the lab, he and trayaurus got tired of the crappy buttons that don't open the doors properly so eventually they just replaced them.

i'll probably do another refsheet to go along with this but that's the gist for now

How to use GIS in Disease spreading?

Why is it important to use GIS for Disease mapping? 

Mapping disease outbreaks provides critical opportunities to leverage Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for pandemic response, analysis, and decision-making.

Organize your data layers based on their thematic importance, like roads, administrative boundaries, or climate zones.

Most platforms provide an option to upload or import GIS data directly. Ensure the spatial attributes are preserved during upload.

       3. Steps for preparing mapping

By applying these simple steps in MAPOG one can easily make disease spreading maps.

To upload boundary  ‘add upload’ > upload vector file  to add area of interest > select the vector file > open > upload. 

Upload csv data that has latitude and longitude > upload csv file > open > publish.

To change the symbols and color click > ‘Action’ > edit feature > change according to preference for both the layers.

Steps to add polygon in the  disease affected area using “point to polygon”

Phylogenesia Automatorum Post-game Devlog #2: The Loop

Friendly reminder: this series of posts will make way more sense if you have game, tried the game out already (you can also rate it here).

The next few days were spent on getting the game loop implemented and the UI up to scratch. Late at night I realised that instead of having the simulation run indefinitely, relying on user input to stop and restart it, the simulation should have a set run time that could be upgraded.

This is honestly super obvious in hindsight, but it sidesteps so many problems, like, players who would rather watch a stable formation oscilate and have points trickle in (and potentially get bored and quit) rather than restart and upgrade their plants.

I was feeling good about this, and now with the basic game object that manages the simulation in place, I needed to get the UI up to scratch. Long-time readers of this blog will know that UI is my absolute bane, and this project is no exception.

Mercifully, some of my UI code from Stellar Terminus came in handy here. You'll notice my fonts are the same, as are my colours, and code that has been adapted and changed many times over from bbtextbox. I also took the object that handles mouseover text that I had developed somewhat recently.

I did up a point tally, as I knew the simulation would get harder and harder to read as more plants were added and the ticks happened faster. And I also added some buttons to control and upgrade the simulation.

At this stage I also converted my hard-coded plant statistics (min/max spawn/sustain ranges, life/death point values and chances etc) to a csv. It was pleasing to know that Gamemaker Studio 2 had a native csv importing function, which was super handy. It also doesn't crash the compilation if you have the csv open in another editor unlike GMS1, and so I was able to rapidly iterate on the values I had given each plant by having the csv open on one monitor and GMS2 in another.

At this stage, I also added two more plants to the database. Creeping Mold (left) was a Magic: The Gathering reference and was conceptualised as a hardy plant that could spread on its own but required many of its friends around it to survive. It also wasn't 100% guaranteed to spread or keep living, which made for interesting patterns. To counteract this, its point gains were quite low, and also had a low chance to even give points in the first place.

The Overhedge (right) was an Over the Hedge reference because I have the brainrot, and this was the polar opposite of the Mold. Overhedge was a plant that had a very low chance to propogate or die, (~2% chance in both cases). It also had a sustain range of 0-8, so it would really just stay and chill where it spawned, providing an anchor for other plants to spawn around it. Naturally, when/if it did spawn and die, it generated quite a few points.

And so ended roughly 3 days of work. I was quite confident at this stage I would get everything done well before the 2 week deadline. Thank you as always for reading, and I'll have both the next part(s) of the devlog, and a post-mortem coming in the next few days!

Build a Dynamic Dashboard Using VBA and Excel

In today’s fast-paced business world, data visualization and automation have become essential tools for professionals. One of the most powerful ways to combine both is by creating dynamic dashboards using VBA in Excel. With the right VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) skills, you can automate data processing and build interactive dashboards that update with just one click.

In this blog, we'll explore how you can build a dynamic Excel dashboard using VBA, step-by-step. We’ll also show you how you can upgrade your skills with expert training from Innozant Institute, a leading name in smart tech learning.

🧩 What is a Dynamic Dashboard?

A dynamic dashboard is an interactive visual representation of your data that updates in real-time or with minimal manual effort. It includes charts, pivot tables, buttons, drop-downs, and reports that respond to user inputs like date selection, product filter, or region.

Unlike static reports, dynamic dashboards can be reused, refreshed, and reused with just a few clicks. And when combined with Excel VBA automation, they become even more powerful.

🛠️ Why Use VBA in Dashboards?

While Excel’s native tools like PivotTables and slicers are helpful, VBA offers added flexibility. Here’s what VBA can do:

Automate data import and cleanup

Dynamically refresh charts and PivotTables

Hide/show sheets, rows, and columns based on selections

Trigger actions with buttons or UserForms

Save or send dashboard reports in PDF or email

In short, VBA gives life to your static Excel files and makes your dashboards dynamic and intelligent.

📊 Step-by-Step: Build a Dynamic Dashboard Using VBA

Let’s look at how to build a simple yet dynamic sales dashboard using Excel and VBA.

Step 1: Prepare the Data

First, get your data ready. It could be from an Excel sheet, a database, or even an imported CSV file. Make sure it’s well structured — rows for records and columns for fields like Date, Region, Product, Sales, etc.

Step 2: Insert PivotTables and Charts

Use Excel’s built-in PivotTable feature to summarize your data — total sales by region, top products, monthly sales trends. Then, insert PivotCharts based on these tables.

To make the dashboard dynamic, we’ll now connect it with VBA.

Step 3: Add Form Controls (Buttons, Drop-downs)

Go to the Developer Tab in Excel and insert buttons and drop-downs. For example:

Combo box to select Region

Button to refresh data

Button to export dashboard as PDF

Name these controls so you can reference them in your VBA code.

Step 4: Open VBA Editor and Write Code

Press ALT + F11 to open the VBA editor. Create a new module and add code like:

Sub RefreshDashboard()

    Sheets("Dashboard").PivotTables("SalesPivot").PivotCache.Refresh

    MsgBox "Dashboard Updated!"

End Sub

You can also automate chart updates, formatting, and data filters. Connect your buttons to the macros via "Assign Macro."

Step 5: Add Export or Email Option

Want to share your dashboard? Try this code:

Sub ExportDashboardToPDF()

    Sheets("Dashboard").ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:="Sales_Report.pdf"

    MsgBox "Dashboard Exported as PDF!"

End Sub

This allows users to download or email the dashboard as a professional PDF report — all from within Excel.

Step 6: Build a UserForm for Advanced Control

Using a VBA UserForm, you can let users select multiple filters (like date range, region, or category) and click a button to view updated results. This adds a sleek, app-like feel to your Excel file.

🎯 Real-World Uses of Dynamic Dashboards

Sales Teams: Track targets, product performance, and regional trends

HR Departments: Monitor hiring status, attrition, and employee engagement

Finance Teams: Compare monthly expenses, profits, and forecasts

Project Managers: View project timelines, milestones, and risks

With just a bit of VBA, your Excel file becomes a powerful business intelligence tool.

What Can Conversational Forms Help Your ChatBot Do Better?

In today’s fast-moving digital environment, user engagement isn’t just important—it’s essential. Websites must offer smarter, more interactive ways to collect data, provide support, and deliver seamless experiences. One powerful tool leading this transformation is Conversational Forms—a standout feature of WPBot, the advanced WordPress chatbot plugin.

In this article, we’ll explore what conversational forms are, why they outperform traditional web forms, and how you can use them effectively across industries to increase engagement and automate processes.

What Are Conversational Forms?

Conversational Forms replace static, multi-field forms with an interactive, chat-style interface. Instead of overwhelming users with a block of fields, they simulate a real-time conversation—asking one question at a time and dynamically responding to the user’s input.

With WPBot’s drag-and-drop Conversational Form Builder, you can easily design smart, engaging forms that support:

Multiple input types (text, email, date, file uploads)

Advanced conditional logic

AI-driven responses via OpenAI integration

Why Conversational Forms Outperform Traditional Forms

Here’s why businesses are choosing conversational forms over traditional ones:

✅ Higher Engagement

They feel like chatting with a human instead of filling out a boring form, resulting in more interaction.

✅ Better Completion Rates

Small, focused questions reduce user fatigue and prevent form abandonment.

✅ Real-Time Personalization

Forms adapt based on user input, tailoring the experience for each visitor.

GMP Consultants: Integrating with Data Integrity and Computer System Validation

In today’s heavily regulated industries, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certification is an indispensable element in delivering products that are consistently produced and controlled to quality standards. GMP is also essential for industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food, and cosmetics to protect public health.

Meanwhile, the need for Data Integrity (DI) and Computer System Validation (CSV) is becoming a standard around the world. Regulatory authorities such as the FDA, EMA, and MHRA are looking for more than just good manufacturing, they're looking for credible, reliable data that supports product quality.

That is, when GMP Certification in UAE objectives are coupled with Data Integrity and CSV programs, it buttons up the entire compliance program, increases operational effectiveness, and establishes higher level of trust with the consumers and regulators.

What is GMP Certification?

GMP is proof that the manufacturer has followed specific guidelines for high quality, safety, and efficacy. Those standards pertain to every aspect of your production, from raw materials to human hygiene, down to equipment cleaning and documentation.

Industries that Require GMP

The certification is a must for various sectors such as:

Biopharmaceuticals and biotechnology

Medical devices

Cosmetics and personal care

Food and beverages

Nutraceutical and food supplements

Fundamental Aspects of GMP Regulations

These standards are concentrated on several key points:

Good and well-maintained factory formats

Written instructions and procedures have been given and followed

Correct documentation of manufacturing parameters

Competent and trained personnel

Quality control and complaint management systems

Following these principles will also result in the quality of products being produced and controlled to standards suitable for their intended use.

Responsibility of GMP Certification Consultants

What Are GMP Consultants?

GMP Consultants are professionals who specialize in assisting companies through the GMP obligations maze. They deliver personalized guidance to help meet compliance, pass audits, and stay certified long-term.

Services Offered:

Gap Analysis and Audits (GA&A): Highlighting non-compliance areas and suggesting optimal improvements.

Development of QMS: Layout of systems and procedures in compliance with GMP.

Employee Training and Inner Audits: Training of the staff and enhancement of already established internal audit procedures.

External Certification Audit Preparation: Assisting businesses to prepare for 3rd party audits by certification bodies or regulators.

Advantages of Using Consultants:

Bringing in consultants, you can expect that when companies bring in GMP Certification Consultants, they bring in added value

Industry-specific know-how

Quicker and more streamlined certification timelines

Increased confidence in adhering to and maintaining adherence

Data Integrity and CSV: An Introduction to CSV

What is Data Integrity?

Data Integrity (DI) is about the accuracy, completeness, consistency, and reliability of data during its lifetime. Regulatory agencies insist that all records, including electronic and paper-based records, be subject to the most rigorous level of integrity.

Principles of ALCOA+

ALCOA+ – the basics of data integrity. Since the days of GCP, the principles of data quality have rested on these 6 basic principles:

Attributable: The data should be linked to the person who created it.

Readable: Data shall be capable of being read and maintained.

Contiguous Florentines: Information should be entered promptly into the log from the time of the activity.

Original: The original records should be retained.

Accurate: Data should be representative of what actually occurred.

Plus: Comprehensive, Coherent, Permanent, and Accessible.”

What is CSV?

Computer System Validation (CSV) Computer system validation ensures that a computerized system employed in these regulated activities is able to generate a result that meets its predetermined specifications. CSV ensures that a system works as intended and in accordance with the standard.

Data Integrity, CSV, and GMP Compliance

Why Compliance Relies on Data Integrity?

Without integrity, quality and safety can not be assured. Data Integrity concerns have been taking center stage during regulatory inspections, and in the event of a breakdown, you may end up with warning letters, product recalls, as well as facility shutdowns.

Utilization of Validated Computer Systems for Operations

Computer systems are validated to ensure that:

The data are obtained with high accuracy and repeatability.

Regulatory and business requirements are satisfied by system functions.

Electronic saved records are reliable and auditable.

Advisor Integration Strategies:

DI Risk Assessments and Gap Analysis: Locating the weak spots in data processing and solutions to remedy them.

Validator Master Plans (VMP) Computer Systems: Defining the validation approach, activities, and documentation that will be needed.

Audit Trails, Access Controls, and Electronic Record Management: Appropriate tracking, safeguarding, and managing access to the information across the systems.

Certification and Validation with Consultant Support

The Initial Review of Systems and Practices

The GMP Certification Consultants in Dubai start with a complete examination of existing manufacturing and data management systems with regard to GMP, DI, and CSV requirements.

Planning of Remediation for DI Gaps and Validation Gaps

Corrective action plans are developed following gap analysis, focusing on the highest risk exposure to compliance and product quality.

System Compliance to Requirements (GAMP 5 approach, where applicable)

In accordance with GAMP 5 (Good Automated Manufacturing Practice) principles, the consultation team heads validation activities, providing a risk-based, scalable approach for computer system validation.

Documentation: SOP and Validation Reports Preparation

SOPs, URS, Validation Protocols (IQ, OQ, PQ), and final Validation reports are also developed to show all aspects of compliance.

Training on DI, CSV Principles

The GMP Certification in UAE experts provide various training programs to sensitize and enhance the knowledge of the workforce with regard to Data Integrity and Computer System Validation.

Final Audits and Ongoing Monitoring Measures

A last internal audit declares the company prepared for external audits, and long-term compliance is supported by enforced monitoring schedules.

Challenges in Integration

Legacy System Compliance/Remediation

Systems that are not validated and are older can represent a serious threat to the integrity of data. Replacing these legacy systems to bring them up to code takes time and money.

Adapting to Changing Regulatory Requirements

Regulatory recommendations about DI and CSV are constantly changing. Enterprises need to be aware of and adjust to changing standards in order to stay compliant.

Resource and Knowledge Constraints in SMEs

Some socioeconomic, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have limited data capability and resources. This makes working with external GMP Consultants in Abu Dhabi all the more important to ensure that you’re both reaching and maintaining compliance.

Future Trends

Emergence of Digital Validation Tool

By automating the validation, CSV tasks are getting faster, and manual activities are decreased, while concessions, accuracy, and audit preparation are improved!

Growing Use of Cloud-Based Platforms and DI Exposure

Although cloud systems bring convenience, economy, and scalability, they also lead to new data security and integrity problems. However, validation and vendor management take on critical importance.

More Regulatory Attention on AI and New Technologies under the Settings

Regulators are likely to issue new guidelines on validating these advanced technologies as artificial intelligence and machine learning enter regulated businesses.

The Main Point!!

Combining the certification, Data Integrity, and Computer Systems Validation is not an option anymore; they are mandatory for any company working in a highly regulated environment. This alignment will not only reinforce compliance but also enhance operational performance, product quality, and consumer confidence.

Through engaging with Good Manufacturing Practice experts, businesses receive the knowledge and structured support required to navigate the intricacies of regulatory environments.

GMP Consultants in UAE assist companies in putting in place strong systems that deliver continued compliance and future success in a very challenging global market.

But don’t worry, migrating From Squarespace to Shopify can be your game-changer! Shopify’s powerful platform provides flexibility, customization, and robust eCommerce solutions that can help you grow faster.

Why Migrate from Squarespace to Shopify? Here’s why thousands of entrepreneurs are switching:

More Flexibility & Customization: Shopify offers countless themes, custom coding options, and drag-and-drop builders that allow you to create a personalized, high-converting store.

Wide Range of Apps & Integrations: Shopify’s App Store gives you access to thousands of apps that enhance your store’s functionality, from marketing automation to inventory management.

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Migrate from Squarespace to Shopify Smoothly 

Step 1: Plan Your Migration Before making the switch, assess your current website. Make a checklist of:

Product details (images, descriptions, SKUs)

Customer information (names, emails, order history)

Blog posts and content

URL structure to maintain SEO integrity

Pro Tip: Create a backup of all your data to avoid losing any critical information.

Step 2: Set Up Your Shopify Store

Sign up for a Shopify account and choose a plan that fits your business needs.

Pick a theme that aligns with your brand and customize it to match your store’s style.

Add essential apps for marketing, analytics, and inventory management.

Why This Step is Important: A well-set-up store ensures a smoother transition and a better user experience.

Step 3: Export Data from Squarespace Squarespace allows you to export product data, pages, and blog content. However, not all data will transfer automatically, so you’ll need to manually migrate certain elements like custom pages or blog comments.

Export Guide:

Go to Settings > Advanced > Import/Export

Add navigation menus, contact forms, and call-to-action buttons for smooth navigation.

Why This Step Matters: A clean, intuitive design improves customer engagement and increases conversions.

Step 6: Redirect URLs to Preserve SEO One of the most critical steps during migration is to set up URL redirects. Since Squarespace and Shopify have different URL structures, you’ll want to redirect old URLs to avoid losing traffic or damaging your SEO rankings.

How to Set Up Redirects:

Go to Shopify Admin > Online Store > Navigation > URL Redirects

Add the old URLs and point them to their new Shopify counterparts

Pro Tip: Use 301 redirects to maintain SEO juice and ensure a smooth transition.
