Good evening, 'Dancer
You re-wrote the entire section? WOW! Maybe it could happen in the comfort
and convenience of my own den, but I tried . line at a time . on the trail.
That is, on the trail with sweat burning my eyes and steaming my glasses,
and with a billion mosquitoes getting high on DEET fumes while they read the
menu. It wasn't too successful. I tried holding the sheet upside-down and
reading it. Nope. I tried reading it through a mirror. Nope, that didn't
work either.
I think you have the key. Excel. Just make a column of NoBo instructions
then Copy/Paste Special/Transpose, and behold: SoBo!
