People expect reports to be presented as a document, like a word processor document, that's tidily formatted and can be easily slotted into other word processor documents for passing onto others. You're suggesting to use a Spreadsheet which is all about calculation and less about Presentation. Gnumeric is fundamentally inappropriate when you take the user expectations into consideration. Of course, we might wish to redefine user expectation rather that do it the same way as everybody else. -- - Charlie Charles Goodwin <[email protected]> Online @ http://www.charlietech.com
