Thanks for that.  I think that my original message gave the impression
that we were using a table for calculations.  That is not currently true
(though your reply gives me some new ideas<G>)

We are primarily using the spreadsheet in this case as a 'format' for
the documentation.

Thank you very much for the reply, like I said it has give me some ideas
for the future and the site was great.
