I hadn't seen that feature in Excel before. When I press F9 it seems to evaluate the expression, which isn't quite what I had in mind (Mac OS). Is that the same as what you get? Duane

Yeah, it's the same feature. It's just that in Excel, the functions always return a value, not an expression. For example, a VLOOKUP doesn't call other Excel functions to return the result, it simply calculates what you're looking for. Hope that made sense. Michael
