Ok, fimacmo don't get mad again Wink , but to make your life easier in updating the xls file, I changed the code of my app so that it will be more helpful.


First - I wasn't mad the other day - just a serious question - should I stop douing my list? Okay, maybe I was a wee bitty peeved but I really can't be arsed to worry about it. Second - too tired and emotional to even understand what you are going on about. Third - did you get your pack yesterday? Fourth - thanks Rob I probably would have cross referenced my list with the Wiki before posting it there.

Happy Sunday all and have a lovely holiday Monday - unless it's not a holiday where you are, then just have a really good day at work.

he he, I was kidding mate Very Happy , anywho...

nope, I didn't get a parcel yesterday, everytime I heard the postbox flutter I was like yeah k'mon parcel time, but nope, some rendom cards....crap business cards...
Hopefully something will happen next week...

On the note of the java app, it produces pretty much the same data that you made in your excel file...
Code:

Number    Letter
1             I
...            ...
333          _

so that means instead of you having to go to the wiki page and find out which new members put their card info in, all you have to do is copy the data as it is, and paste it into a txt file called 'unfData', keeping in mind that some people have forgotten to put a ':' after their names, (so you need to put them in where there is none). Then run the .jar file in the same directory as the unfData, and hey presto, you will have two files: 'PPCCodes.csv': contains the data i mentioned in the 'code' section, and 'Stats.txt' which shows letter statistics like i showed in my jar file posting...

Then, you can open the csv file in excel and copy and paste all the data into your excel file, which has the cell sizes set correctly, and has some sorting buttons in place...

Hopefully it will make updating your file easier.

Note, in order for the file to run, you need to have a pretty recent version of java runtime environment installed... if you have problems PM me...

It was normal post by the looks. It was sent via Royal Mail in the UK, so I assume so.

I'm in the inner city in Sydney (Kings Cross of all places!) so maybe I got it earlier than some who are in less central areas or interstate.
