Windeyes, ******OT********* I couldn't write a line of FORTRAN if my lift depended on it now. I'm not even sure I got the name right! Messed around with Basic some several years back, but never got any good at it. I think you have to work with it to really learn it. But then I do know my primary business real well and programers don't. I can make Word, Excel, and Key Access do what I need done. A programer looked at one of my Excel programs to convert it into Fox Pro (?) and decided to leave it alone. The math formulas were too complex for him to understand. He said it would be easier for me to learn how to do the programing. The program is now in use in Excel with security locks on the formulas. NW
