[mso] Re: data is in one column - how do I get the % of each company represented?

I think you'd better tell us more about what's in your file.  E.g. how would 
you find or calculate "what is the % for each company represented"?

Also, what format is the data file in?  Also what MSO product are you using? 
Presumably Excel, but you need to confirm that.
