Excel Cell Format
Bob --- I understand your comments, I was just pointing our that I'm
comfortable with RoboForm and frankly my comments about "Rocket Science" was
made as a result of my wife stating that is was easy for her to use and for
my wife to make a statement like that is rather unusual.
I basically comfortable with Excel and have used it for years. Used to use
it daily before I retired, but I'm a bit rusty now as I really don't have
many challenges for good spread sheets like I used to do. Also my memory is
not what it used to be and I had forgot about the 15 digit rule, but as I
said I do use the ' apostrophe method.
Not to bore you, but my wife's computer (that she used to have) came with
Works 6.0 installed a few years back (three or four as I recall) and Works
Spread sheet does not have that restriction if my memory serves me correctly.
In any event thank you for all of your comments and suggestions enjoyed
communicating with you.

Larry,
It was Excel that I was saying was easy, not RoboForm. I don't know RoboForm
well enough to know, but looking at the website, I assumed it would have
encryption of that sort of level.

Bob --- The following is my answer from RoboForm support concerning
security.
""Your Identities and Passcards are encrypted using AES, BlowFish, RC6 or
3DES algorithm and the encryption / decryption key is generated from the
Master Password. This encryption method makes your data very secure and
even
if hackers come into possession of your Identity and Passcard files, they
will have to crack one of these encryption algorithm without knowing the
key
which is considered impossible. By default AES encryption is used.""
I'm very comfortable with that response, and I like the way it functions.
Very easy to use and it does not require a degree in "Rocket Science" to
understand the operation.

Bob ---- Thanks for both of your responses. I'm not familiar with
KeePass,
but will investigate it and see what the differences are between it
and
RoboForm.
I took a look at RoboForm, and the biggest difference is that KeePass is
free. It seems that RoboForm has some extra functions for using tyhat
data
also.
I have used and do use the ' apostrophe solution, but was hoping their
was
another way to format the cell so I could store longer numbers.
I don't think, just seems a limitation of Excel's arithmetic engine.
I hate to say this, but I do know that Excel is not necessiarly secure
,
but
I have done everything humanly possible to protect the file and my
computer.
I'm what you would call a "SECURITY FREAK". Having said that I do
realize
that the best of the those folks our their who want to hurt you and
get
data
from you have many deviious ways to do so!!!!!!
Unfortunately with Excel you don't have to be the best or even devious,
it
is EASY.
