That's not an answer to the question either. The "it" that we are implementing is using the linking document encoding (if there is a linking document) as a fallback for linked-to sheets. In what you said, what is "the required infomation" and what exact problem is your undevelopable algorithm trying to solve? Boris -- Ray's Rule of Precision: Measure with a micrometer. Mark with chalk. Cut with an axe.
