Thure,

>>My sentiments exactly. What happened to the days of trying to write portable code?

Portable Code is not good for Microsoft, therefore it is not good for the American Way. Don't you read the pamphlets?

>>I could care less about most of the trivial stuff that is written for Windows. And I doubt if the world will come to an end if we don't get some more buttons for Excel.

But the people want more buttons and wizards, that's why most of the customization options in their products are used to hide unwanted buttons and toolbars. Ease-of-use is for astronauts; office-workers like complexity and ever-changing interfaces.

Cheers,

Norm
