Point taken, but surely you can appreciate my frustration at having a project due in mere hours and not being able to do what I need to do. In this economy where every job is as precious as gold, failure is not an option. As for taking time to learn the interface, my good sir, I have spent a good deal of time doing just that, but this ribbon thing has gotten me truly baffled, for lack of a more appropriate term. I do however appreciate your help - and reluctantly accept your admonishment.
