I use the same input data file name every time. It just has updated data. Years ago, clearly during a moment of creative genius, I named the file csv.csv. Seemed catchy, so I stuck with it!

I'm no stranger to Regedit. Where might I find the code?


Thanks for your continued help. On another note, I hope the fires near you aren't adversely affecting you or your family.
