Expertise

I can answer questions regarding worksheet functions (formulas, data, etc) and I have a fairly good handle on VBA. I can help with many, though not all VBA questions to provide coding, menus, macros, and automation. To someone who does almost nothing with code, I may come across as "expert" level. However, to someone who really knows their code very well, they consider me closer to a beginner. :) What I am good at, is piecing together a lot of research to put together reasonably good, workable code. So even if I don't write it all from scratch, I can often help you. I do accept and appreciate donations...Yes, I enjoy participating in web forums where mutual help is always exchanged for free, but allexperts is a bit different, as it's answering anonymous questions from anonymous persons, often a valuable bit of code that would cost you $100 of a paid person's time, with virtually nothing in return. So I greatly appreciate a $5 or $10 here and there, if you so choose. YOU MUST TELL ME WHICH EXCEL VERSION YOU ARE ON. 2003, 2007 I enjoy providing quality answers. To me a quality answer means that as an "expert", you DON'T try to sound fancy and complicated. Rather, you provide help where the person is at, and don't suggest things so complicated they will not be able to do them or maintain them. At the same time you may nudge them to check out additional options that will broaden their knowledge a bit. When you ask me a question, you will get an honest and helpful answer. Beware that this is not the case with many "experts". Either they are so 'expert' they will phrase things in a way that doesn't get you where you need to be (impossible to figure out how to implement), or else they will only criticize your approach. If I think your approach is wrong, I may mention it - but I'll still also answer your question. If I can't answer it, I'll be prompt and honest in saying so. (rare)
