And I'll reiterate my call for someone knowledgeable to PLEASE give serious
thought to coming up with a "Complete Idiot's Guide to Programming
Formulas". I know there's some sort of package on UNNA that supposedly
allows one to do this, but either I found it not all that straightforward or
something, because I never pursued it. I *do* recall that when I first
looked into this (nearly 2 years ago) my impression was that the best way
was to actually do the programming, but for that I'd need a guide/mentor.
