Hi Dave,
Sorry about not being a bit clearer.Ami actually gives us the capability of having side by side plots and being able to link the two charts and have a global cursor.Just cant alter that format in the other sheets,but t be honest its not a big deal as i can have many other layouts...
As for the other goodies,I am only working with AMI for a week and am overwhelmed with all you can do.I really need totake a step back and figure out the best way to tackle this program..Its far more challenging than the others I have used,but clearly a cut above..Thanks for the help
Allan
