Pivots, Pivots, Pivots........
Jason,
I copied the code, but there are two errors. The
first appeared like an extra curly brace, when I removed this I get another
error at the end; which probably shows something is wrong before that. I'll
appreciate your corrections. I do use pivots that's why i'm
interested.
TIA
Herbert
