Bob-

Thanks for you help! One last question: How do I make 2 lines of text
instead of 1 long line of text?

Thanks!

I have a few tricky workbooks made up for my staff.

The most elegant solution would be to have a dialog box open up everytime
the workbook opens. The dialog box would give a few pointers to how to
use
the workbook and then they would click OK before using it.

Is this possible or a pipe dream?
