Default help with Excel bowling score sheet

Hi John Wilson,

My email address is I appreciate it. If for no other reason
but to see how it is done before class

Thanks

Landy,

I just happen to have a primitive "Bowling Scoresheet" workbook
that I created in Lotus123 many years ago.
Converted it to Excel and it seems to work well.
If you want a copy to look at the formulas, give me a valid
e-mail address to send it to.

Ya I guess since i've been in the excel class for 4 days and this
"instructor" says I want everyone to try to write a bowling score

sheet....I
know none of you can do it and I know you cant find it on the internet

but
try anyway...he just wants to bring us into class display his grand
knowledge...which he probly found on the internet himself...maybe I do
deserve an F ...but I thought maybe just maybe I could share the formula
with the other people in the class so he couldn't make everyone feel

like
idiots....most of the people in the class have no clue as to how to even

run
a computer...and he is telling us to write this formula....the only

reason
he wants to do this is so he can talk even more about himself...did you

go
to college and have a couple of professors like that...self absorbed
arrogent.....didn't you want to put them in there place....I would say

you
are rare if you didn't because this is the second time I have been to
college and I have seen his kind before....I am also in a VB.net
class...the instructor for that class would never ask us to write a

program
he knew we were not prepared for.....anyway...thanks for your

input...sorry
to anyone who thinks I'm asking you to do my work...its not about the
work....its about letting the instructor know that he is not as special

as
he thinks he is...I guess you just have to see it to believe it.

thanks

Please don't give us the parameters of your assignment and ask us to

put
your teacher in his place. He didn't say that *we* couldn't do it, he

said
that you couldn't do it. You should at least try to do some of your

own
work. You aren't even asking for specific help with a specific

formula.
You
deserve an F for asking us to do your work for you.

Hi,

I am a student at a community college just starting excel 2002...my

teacher
is an arrogant ******* and told everyone in class they couldn't write

or
find a formula for a bowling score sheet. And he was correct about

writing
one I tried and with the statements I know it would take 3 months to
write...so here I am trying to find it. It has to be a formula to

score a
bowling game....with strikes and spares. Please help me put this guy

in
his
place...if you know where to find it or you already have it or are

generous
enough to take some time and explain it to me I would appreciate it. I

would
have to have it by next wednesday.

Thanks
