OK, remarkably simple question here... How come I can't open multiple AWGS documents from the Finder all at once? Say I wan't to open several files. For some programs I can select them all and go File/Open and it'll launch the app - and the app will open all those docs. AWGS won't do this. The Finder complains that I can't do it. Solutions? Reasons? Future Updates? Thanks... -- Dave Whitney | I wrote Z-Link and BinSCII. Send me bug Computer Science MIT 1990 | reports. I need a job.

It only lets you open/print files of the same filetype/auxtype combination, even if all of the files would be opened/printed by the same app. If they ever fix this problem, AWGS would work fine. But this is one of the many annoying things about the GS Finder. -- Syd Polk | Wherever you go, there you are. jazzman@claris.com | Let the music be your light. jazzman@apple.com | These opinions are mine.

To change cell references in an AWGS spreadsheet to absolute references, put a $ before the part of the reference (row or column) that you want to be absolute. E.G. a$3 will have row 3 as absolute, $a$3 will have both the row and column absolute, $a3 will just have column a absolute. Alan H.
