Darn... I was hoping that a fix had been found or created since October... oh
well, I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that something will come up.

Thanks, Treena

Yes, it is Excel 2007. Sorry for the oversight, and thank you for the
information. I'll keep my eyes 'peeled'.
Thanks, again.

Assuming Excel 2007 this is a known problem and as yet no patch for it.

Thanks.
