[mso] Re: Excel Ranked List Problem

Thanks, Andrea

It's getting late here (ah, but you are in the UK, too!) and I will take
time to look at it tomorrow.  Don't worry about the =3D (and the spurious =
signs which, I think, show linebreaks) - I understand  and can filter them
out.

It's looking promising :) ... I will test with more data!

Andrew
