Hey Jamie,

Thank you for the ideas. It appears I'm in your dust trail just 
trying to keep up. I did download both ToolCrib and XKey and I'm 
having some luck having them talk to each other, but can't seem to 
get the values into Excel. The numbers seem to be strangely coded in 
ToolCrib. Is there something I should do to snap Excel into accepting 
the values? Any hints to have each talk to each other would help.

All the best,

Roman
