Have you considered creating an addin?
Never heard of that but sounds good.

I started to search doc and examples for that. So now after two hours: Is that a joke?:o
No really, they can't be serious! First I had to configure my Excel for Add-ins (Creating menuitems). Then I started to examine the examples I found at forums and professional pages. The first examples I found didn't work at all: Excel turned off and the screen began to fill itself with thousands of windows -> restart. After the next, Excel wasn't responding anymore -> restart. For another addin I had to turn the security-level down to the neepest level and wholla! my keyboar-driver was set to us-en (I got a swiss-keyboard) -> setup and restart. the next I found was finally a simple, little and I think pretty understandable project of 5 KB for to count the number of characters written. But this thing needs in fact 1.5 MB disk space, would insert some kind of data into the registry (I always read the readme-file) and at last did't even worked too, Excel didn't recovered the exe as an add-in -> well, no restart but veeery impressive.
Thanks for your hint, but no, I will not use that! (don't feel depressed, it's nothing personal :))
EDIT:
Well anyway, my chef said that we will do this in text-format now. So thanks for all your hints. Maybe another time, I'll have a look back to this forum. Greetings!
