Hi George,
Thanks for the information! I think I'll be able to go with what you've given me. What I'm wanting to do didn't seem that hard ... just filling in the cells of a pre-existing sheet ... but I didn't know how to start. I'm going to study over what you've given me and I think I'll find my answer there. However, if I get stuck you might hear from me again... you lucky devil you :)
Thanks again.
