. . . I was simply
trying to exhaust the possibility that there was something I wasn't
understanding about the use of your formulas before saying that it was
the formulas themselves that were screwed up. But that seems to be a
little too subtle for you to comprehend.



Unadulterated BS.

The formula didn't work. Presumably you figured that out, but did you want
to say that? Much less venture a fix?



At the time I had *not* figured that out. I was still trying to figure out whether it was that the formulas could not work (which would imply that without so advising the users you posted without testing--not the most likely probability in my mind at the time), or that I was applying the formulas inappropriately; hence the questions about array entering and copying. I wouldn't consider venturing a "fix" unless and until I knew it was the formulas themselves and not my particular attempt to apply them that was the problem.

But that's OK; rant on, it's instructive for the users.
