Jim,
Excel seemed to be a natural only because of the column headings A thru H and I
definitely needed
something better than the Notepad Chessboard that I had set up. Since an email
from Ed Z and you
this afternoon, mentioning BG Chess and winboard, I have decided to look into
BG Chess to use for
my multiple chessboard situation. I can open and close different games as their
emails come in. Use
the already setup Chess environment to validate my moves and, hopefully,
keystroke checks for piece
attacks. If they don't exist in BG Chess, then I will go to Winboard, like you
use, and use all of
it's features except making suggestions for best moves.

Hi Alvin,
Are you talking about a spreadsheet that would make the move when you
type it into a form in algebraic notation? I know of no such thing,
but it has to be possible to make such a thing, since you have the
whole of VisualBisic for Applications at your disposal. I'd imagine
that you could also have as many games going as you'd ever want. All
you'd have to do is copying workbooks. Heck, you could probably get
one to even read in pgn files for you. But why not get a pgn file
viewer program. I'd bet they can be found.
