I use "Open Office". Works the same as MS, operates any of the MS suite and is free. Also save all to separate hard drive.

I would like to urge all members to use Open Office as the closest alternative to anything from Microsoft.

that is the site I was at, never did get the HTTP
downloaded..... only minimal issues so far things hiding or popping up where they dont belong

assume we are using the spreedsheet? not database

what are the tricks to it?
have not used excel in 10 years would expect to be easier and not need any formulas as yet
need 12 rows (info) across and would like to cross search by MB/mfg # my stock # and location (3 listing orders)

Yes, spread sheet is what I use. Some functions from exce are not available, but they are fairly cosmetic.

I know quite a few facebook users who simply copy the variation tables from my site, It would be easy to print them out and take them with you to toyfairs etc.
The variation tables are now locked so the codes will not change any more, new unlisted variations will be given a suffix and slotted into the table in their correct position in the timeline.
Just highlight and copy the text you need and paste it into a blank word document and you will get this - but you might want to add some spaces to make it easier to read.

I did the above but with the pages open on my iPhone. Easy Peasy and I just add "got it yippee' next to the line when I get it.

wanting to make a companion photo file/ number quick book .
have 600 photos 2009 heading backward,purchased 3 photo management programs either they cant do what I want or jumble them into random order
My questions tonight I made an apache spread sheet, have the cells fixed 90% and is working to insert photos however
1 how do I mass format so photos fill cell.?...not by me guessing and dragging
since I am going landscape 7 x 5 (basically how a mattel series runs) 35 to a page
2 how do I (when new number is found to add)in cell 20 then simply bump cells 21> down when they cross columns?
