Hi Anne.

I already have all the sheets in one file for the year 2003, which is
not the problem I wish to solve.  What I want is some method more
powerful and less tedious than a find and replace.  I guess the area I'm
dealing with references.  I think I figured this one out, though,
references don't seem to work when the column format is text.  Changing
my master cell in that column to "Date" and the other cells that
reference to it the same way solved the problem.

I haven't played with SO since the 5.2 days and I never tried to mix
things.  I sent a copy of the template in a seperate email.

Now, I'm just looking for a good introduction to Star Basic programming
that isn't based on the concept of building some kind of application. I
just want to automate the summing process beyond the capability of my
understanding of the formulas.
