I have found Multiplan unacceptable because it loses the second digit of a number at even relatively slow typing speeds. The problem is that anything you type at the top level is a command (as opposed to Supercalc where a command is invoked with "/". When you type a digit, Multiplan goes off to decide that you hav invoked the value command, but by the time it comes back, you are up to the third digit. If you don't have a hardware type ahead buffer, it means you have to watch the screen pretty carefully, and wait a bit till you type the second digit. Peter
