Reggie,

>>Most of the links on my site have been removed due to the fact that we are rewriting the software to take advantage of the Office 2000 stuff (the older Excel apps had security problems).

Rewriting software? Missing links? Sounds like following the MS upgrade path means downtime and lost productivity for even the most advanced advocates of the doctrine... I wonder if the Java spreadsheets have security problems. Real network security is one of the benefits of Java's design philosophy.

Cheers,

Norm

Reg- Wouldn't it be nice if Office could generate Java applets?

Harvey

P.S. The lack of links illustrating your/Microsoft's approach might
indicate you're driving down a dead end.
