absolutely, and those sorts of subtleties are what I spend a lot of
time working with, and yet few customers do anything but fall asleep
when I begin to explain these various options that are avalable to
them. They usually want just warm or cool, that's all I meant.

probably, and that's kind of what I meant. I didn't mean to imply
ProfileMakerPro should be used for profiling like this. I don't know
much about spreadsheet apps but I assume they'll do you averaging. I
only meant MeasureTool ould spit out your new averaged txt file to
then go back to QTR CreateICC with. You'd have the option of weighted
averaging as well if desired.
Just a thought.
