@ CED Magic Admin

Tom it appears the Excel CED Title document is configured on US title Database can you confirm this?

Is there one for the UK CED releases


Kind Regards

That's correct. I wrote the Excel macro before I had ever seen a PAL/UK disc or knew what all the titles were, so they are not included. I'll eventually get around to updating it to include those missing titles.

ok thanks Tom

Im not a stranger to Excel so if you want me to do it - Im more than happy if you can just provide the formula set up on the macro.

Or if you want me to type the uk stuff (as detailed on your site) onto an excel spreadsheet again happy to do.

It would be nice to get sorted (now I have 4x cucats) - but understand there is never enough time in the day

Kind Regards
Steve spill

Here's a fairly straight-forward procedure to modify the Excel macro for PAL capability without the need to understand how it actually works. The macro pulls its data from a list of CED titles in Columns E and F of the worksheet. By replacing the first 271 titles in the existing list with the 271 PAL/UK titles that would have UPC's (count excludes the Service Alignment Disc), the macro will be set to recognize PAL/UK titles (but no longer recognize those first 271 NTSC titles). Here's the PAL/UK worksheet to download and paste into the macro:

http://www.cedmagic.com/title-database/ced-macro-pal-titles.zip

After downloading and unzipping the above file follow this procedure to recognize PAL/UK titles with the macro:

(1) In the PAL Excel worksheet downloaded above, select and copy the cell range A1:B271

(2) In the Excel 11-digit UPC macro worksheet, select the cell range E5:F275

(3) Execute a Paste command to replace the cell contents with those copied in Step (1)

(4) Save the macro worksheet and run the macro with 11-digit UPC's scanned off PAL/UK caddies.
