[mso] Re: Limitation of ORs, Excel XP Changed mind

Here's a tip for finding a function in Excel help, which is probably
what you want to do 9 times out of 10 (it is in my case, I know.)
Instead of just typing in 'Or' (which as you know finds nothing useful),
type in 'Or function' and you'll see the top hit is the one you want.

---Copy---
From Excel help:

   OR(logical1,logical2,...)

   Logical1,logical2,...   are 1 to 30 conditions you want to test that
can be either TRUE or FALSE. 

Give us more of an idea of what you're trying to do; there may be an
easier way.
---End---

Ok, I went with VLOOKUP, so I won't be uploading a file. But I am
+still+ having trouble with Help in Excel.

Thank you.

Robert
