    Can you just post a valid URL if it is not sensitive that shows what you need? I can then see if you wanted to download a file as your thread title says or just do a copy/paste of the selection. As I said, the latter can be done I guess if you like long breaks while it does it. I have attached an example file that does the ie method for this thread's URL. Run the mMain Test subs from the bottom up to see each step. It also has a pdf module with routines that can be used to save a sheet as a PDF file.

    I am kind of an odd ball I guess. I like to solve simple problems. To do that, I isolate the problem and solve it and then move on to the next one. That is done by making a short example file with just that problem. While I don't mind looking at somone's huge file, I sometimes can't see what their issue is because they have other issues that have to be resolved first.

    I have been bitten by that bug before. I tend to be detail oriented too much sometimes. When I know I am going to do something like that, I scribble my response into MSWord or such first. That way I can spell check and such. Even so, long responses and long threads tend to lose focus for the others that might want to help.
