Are you using the shift. I'd certainly like that better than having a
bunch of junk files cluttering up my settings folder.  There's one
spreadsheet we get every day.  All are alike, save for the name, and
each one is only used once.  Let me know what you do, an I'll try it.

Oh when I've done them it seems to stay consistant for all my
spreadsheets, 
no matter which one I go in. If I change it in one, it changes in
others.

I'll have to look and make sure I'm doing it correctly then.

Is it like web pages where if you use SHIFT in addition to INSERT + V
you 
get verbocity settings for that particular web site, meaning you have 
different settings for each web page.
