The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

All I meant was that you have to know what you're doing, whether
that's leveraging built-in functions properly or doing your own
arithmetic or some combination. It is a truly sad sight to see date
logic created by someone who did not know what they were doing (but
thought they did). The existence of the famous "Excel date bug" (which
might more properly be called the "Lotus 1-2-3 date bug") is a prime
example. Perhaps THE prime example.
