Dick- my most sincere and humble appreciation for your help- my project is
indeed working on my machine now, so now I'll go find some hapless
victim...err...willing volunteer in my department to make sure it works on
everyone's machine. My coworkers will be very happy that they no longer have
to enter their data in two separate systems.

My continuted appreciation to all the MVPs for their help, especially in
this group, where I post (and lurk) the most.

Dick (and others) - one final question, now that I see the benefits of late
binding, but still don't have a terribly good understanding of how to make
it work (I don't have a programming background)... would my time be best
spent learning the object models of the various office programs (word and
powerpoint, most often), or should I first look for VBA books to see if any
give special attention to late binding (theory, practice, common pitfalls,
etc.)?

Best regards,
Keith
