Oh, I know. I just think people mis-use spreadsheets. I have seen too many cases of people using a spreadsheet to store information that should have been in a database. I've had many an invoice -- even from computer shops, who ought to have known better -- for 1.00 items. I have also seen one spreadsheet mis-user adding up a column of figures using a calculator and entering the total manually. -- AJS -- Microsoft free and proud of it since 2002 deb64 at earthshod co uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
