Oh. I hadn't thought of that. I'll have to look and see how I did it. But if you look at the Value Value (<G>) under Criteria for the rules(eg. steve "Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM" <franksaund...@mvps.org> wrote in message > "Steve Cochran" <scoch...@oehelp.com> wrote in message >> Here's what I posted on December 12th: >> <quote> >> This is for a single rule at the moment.
