Default how do you get a permanent cache?

We take care of the building's mail, and to get a device that would read and
automatically tell the computer the name, address, city, state would cost
thousands of dollars more... So each day, we enter it into Excel; now if it
comes up twice per day, great - the memory of the item gets displayed, but,
once you turn off Excel, that memory gets erased, and we would have to enter
everything all over again...

:-(

Your original post stated "I'm in a mail prg."

What do you mean by that?

Are you using Excel in some manner?

If so, are you speaking of the Autocomplete feature?

Autocomplete is driven by unique entries in the same column above or below
the entry cell.

It is as simple as filling in a few cells, and when you start typing the
contents of those cells again, the entire word or words show up... This
happens now, when you leave the prg. on, once you turn it off, the words get
erased!

Thank you!
