    Help with Excel

    Are we talking MSOffice Professional? If so which edition? I run MSOffice Professional Edition 2000 currently, if you have that version, or even MSOffice 1997, PM me, i'd be glad to help. I can write the formula send it to you, then you just copy and paste in the appropriate cell.....done! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  3. There is a triune God, God, Jesus Christ and the holy spirit. There is also a heaven and hell. and we still have to sleep, crap and piss, we're THAT inefficient? (Yes we are, we are mere mortals) And a little piece of metal moving at a few hundred FPS can -kill- you? Lame. (Crossing the street can get ya killed Grue, that's not even a good metaphor.) Eyelashes going into eyes, (You've seen this? If you have i'd like to see those images) ingrown hairs, baldness, wisdom teeth growing in wrong, armpit and leg hair on women, colour blindness, these are all engineering errors! (Negative, these are not Engineering errors or improper design. God created man in his own image. And please heed this warning and statement: Be ye not decieved, God is not mocked.) Ridicilous statement. IMO. So often we express our disslikes for certain conditions. There is an old adage that my father shared with me when i was a young lad: "I once complained because i had noe shoes. I stopped complaining when i met a Viet-Nam Vet in a wheel chair with no legs" P.S. In place of a "Flame Fest" My side-bar remark will be: Theses opinions and anologies are my own, and i am not imposing my idelisims anything on anyone. P.S.S. My mom is lying on her death bed right now. So in closing i would make the following statement: "Every Day above ground Is A Good Day" Don't sweat the small stuff. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  4. On my new Javelin i ordered the Phat-Daddy handles. I have pretty big hands, i've practiced with the rig on a lot. If i miss either handle, i deserve the bounce. They're pretty big in diameter, hard to miss and easy to get a good grip on. I wear leather gloves and it only serves to make the grab - pull easier for me, (And NO i'm not going to throw my handles away) This does not mean for you to do it, it only means due to my limited experience it works for me.......hopefully. Good Luck. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  5. Rhino, Rob Cowan is one of my very good friends, i've known him for a lot of years. We started SkyDiving about the same time, at the same DZ. When he thinks he's right about something, he's paaionate about it, very passionate, we all allready know that! I know EVERYBODY takes on an "alter ego" behind the keyboards here. 99.94% of it is due to the Wednesday night's Tom Foollery in the pub, and "cliques" ganging up on a sole user, deludging them with PM's so fast they can't keep up, and the other 0.6% are just freaking assholes looking to start shit. (Statistics bear this out) C'mon.....C'mon, admit it. (Hell, i do, everybody here knows that's not a lie!) Who here lives in a "Glass House? Or plans to move into one soon? Whaddya say? What's the DZ.Com community think? Should Rhino be allowed back? Or has he been given his second and last chance, and should we leave it at that? I'm liable to get shot for this, but i thinik voting should be restricted to "Premier Members" I mean, if your not paying to stay, you can bail and not have to pay to hear an organ grinder play music you don't want to pay for. My vote: "Hell Yeah" One more chance. Rob, if you are allowed to come back and you fuck HH ,the moderators or anyone else here,.... i'm flying up north and i will kill you! J/K.....well....maybe not. C'mon guys how's about "Another for my brother" Like it or not, he is a damn good canopy pilot and skydiver, and he's part of "La Cosa Nostra" Doh, not the mafia, "Our Thing!" -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  6. BINGO! Steveorino. The two things that do puzzle me about this particular old chap is number one: his strange physical likeness to Lee Harvey Oswald, and what whould be his M.O. for copping out to something he never did? (Free air fare home?) I think he had as much to do with this crime as Michael Jackson did. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  7. This "Satan" fella......You know him? I heard his name was "Old Horny, The Sinned Stud, The Prince Of Darknes, Bellzebub....Satan? That's New! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  8. Hog Wash, is this a Cop-Out? not everyone uses them for that but thats what they are made to do Novice? -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  9. Mini 14? WTF is that? Never heard of it. Post a .jpeg file please. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  10. #1: Please listen to responder # 2. #2: Bad body positioining at opening time, you were looking to the right, probably watching the collapasble PC when the D-Bag came out, and the canopy iinflated to line stretch. (It's happened toe me.....ONCE) -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  11. Question: and i cannot believe it hasn't been posed yet, is why in the heck did you cut-away from a stable 2 out configuration? If it was "down planing" i could understand, but you did mention "Stable Configuration" -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  12. I want to go! Can we fire some RPG's in it too? Ater it's landed! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  13. WITF would you want to gain 25lbs? I kill myself keeping my weight down, and you want to gain it. Tell ya what, i'll trade ya! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  14. I've never agreed with much you've said so far. But you get no arguement out of me on either of these comments from your mouth. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  15. Go watch "Cut-Away" Or "Drop Zone" or maybe even even "Point Break" with the fabled 4 1/2 minute free fall in it, and it's equally as humerous. I agree "Ricky Bobby" is a joke, but there are better out there. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  16. The same could be said about our "Sky God" sport we have, the only thing is we don't have is 300 million fans and trillions of dollars of revenue being pumped into skydiving like NasCar does. Brutally honest opinion, your jealous. You only wished yu had the celebrity status of a Dale Jr, Jeff Gordon, Gregg Biffle and the like. Truth hurts i -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  17. Thighs - Chest - Inseam - Torso. Go to any container web site that sells containers and look at what they want measured. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  18. Hook: Where you been? Can't wait to hook up again, Take Care. Hope all is well with you and Kelli. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  19. I'll fly, and do either one. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  20. I saw a skydiver who was very experienced with a line over (I'm above him) i'm thinking, cut that bitch away. He wasn't flying an AAD and flying in a spiral, so he cut at roughly 1000 AGL so he wouldn't have to walk so far to recover his main. I TRIPPED! He was flying Camera and he then went into the packing area and promptly chewed out the packer's ass. Good thing he had a backup rig!! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  21. Refer to your SIM. If you don't have one go on line at uspa.org. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  22. I wouldn't even entertain the idea of going and spending my hard earned money on a "has been" washed up convict used to be C&W singer. His voice ant that stuoid harmonica are like nine inch nails being drug down a chak board, -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  23. I've seen it so many times i have most of the dialog memorized. Great Bogie...Classic. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  24. I'm with AD on this one. All of the DZO's i know take care of their own business, best that way. Now, it the DZO and The S&TA have been made aware od bad gear, past due annuals, brake fluid leaks or bad calipers, bad fuel, i could go on oand on, then it's time to alert a higher authority. If you do not, and someone gets badly injured or even expires, your an accessory to the crime. You will be interrogated by officials and deposed by lawyers, and quite possibly be eligible for a class action lawsuit, which would take years to pursue. Watch your back. Handle it through the proper channels, if that doesn't work, either find another DZO or be willing to do what you have to. We had a guy turn us in at SDH years ago, i can't remember the infraction, but he got no where. But he wasn't treated any differently either. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
