Hi Harlan,

In many situations, only PDF files are distributed because they can't
be changed

I am sorry, but this is definetly bull...

pdf means nothing else than I decide to manipulate the data when
transferring it to excel OR manipulating it because I have to find dumb
workarounds to import the data OR I make errors when importing. If one
produces pdf he is to dumb to produce simple and clear datafiles that
can easily be read by any software. This is something for "experts" not
for anyone who does not know more than printing to a pdf-printer.

If you want to transfer data then transfer data, if you want to send a
fax then send a fax. If you want to receive data then ask for data,
there's always a way.

regards

arno
