Hi Roger, I did a search for "NASS Compendium 14-2 "Hollander Dial Software"; unfortunately the link to find a DeltaCAD marco was not available or I missed it, or perhaps you have to be a member of the North American Sundial Society to access it. Do you have a direct link to the Marco for the Hollander Sun Dial?; I am also interested in making one. Thank you, Ray N043., W077. flowercity14...@gmail.com
