You must be hardcoding it?
dont know what is meant by hard coding (with regards to VBA specific to excel, word etc).
although i know a bit of vba, i prefer formulas.
formulas to me are a lot easier to understand and remember then the equivalant vba, which i find far too rigid - not easy to alter quickly as it usually requires a lot of thinking to even adapt vba to a slight change in requirements.
quite funny really with a name like VISUAL BASIC for applications; its nigh on impossible to visulise (for me).
ps i picked up quite a bit of vba either directly from you, or adapting your code and expanding on it so to speak Nigel.
its your fault i dont like it, you should have made it more interesting
pps your website is coming along nicely, good stuff hope it continues and goes well for you.
