Yes. I am an Excel guru. I can get the little fella to do things you've only dreamed off. I used to train advanced techniques to data analysts & VBA. I've hooked the Google maps Geocode web service up to an Excel function to clean account data & provide lat/longitude for an internal map system. All good fun.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment
