I went skiing today so was only able to get to this tonight. Thanks
guys, this is good info. Most of what you're talking about is way
beyond me though :)

You know what I should do since this is a little much for me it
seems... I should just write up exactly what I'm after and then let
folks give me a price to do it (probably with a macro). Is that
allowed on this group? I really don't have access to "excel"
programmers locally and if I did they would propabably charge a great
deal of money per hour where some sharp on this list could do it for
extra cash. I'm guessing that it probably wouldn't take more than a
couple of hours, maybe even an hour, for someone familiar with macros.

Good tip about Access but I don't have that program and if I did would
be even more lost than I am with Excel :)
