Thanks Ray.  I need to get this out and in people's hands while they're  
gnoshing on turkey this Thursday, so, I did export to Excel.  I think that  
works best, because some of the donors aren't well suited to having a last  
X 2 kind of thing.  I guess automation is wonderful, but somethings need  
to be reviewed and reviewed and reviewed by a real person.  I do REALLY  
appreciate your help.

Excel did some weird stuff for me when it was calculating based on the  
exported donation number--I couldn't get it to get rid of decimal places  
until I had it, for the minimum, multiply by last and then round.  Kindda  
weird but I figured it out without having to bug you all.

Thank you,

Kathie
