    How do you know Excel is your passion? Or is it?

    Passing string to web page field (box)

    @Marc L Thanks very much works perfectly! I must confess I started at the Google CSE help but didn't know enough about how HTML or Java etc worked and so my eyes glazed over and further Googling led me to this other approach. Would you mind cutting and pasting the bit from Help that told you...

    High level data summary using seperate table to define data to HL code [SOLVED]

    Hi Smallman Thanks for your response and time! Actually the different range size 100 vs 1000 was a typo so sorry for that impression as I know from bitter experience SUMPRODUCT has to be generally symmetrical. If I could I would go back and edit this so it doesn't distract anyone. But...
