RE: [mepbmlist] AutoMagic UPDATE 1.01

[Hatcher, Andy]

One clarification you should make.

When it comes to entering skills, the header at the top of the column says:

C,A,E,M

which is deceptive because 0,20,0,78 doesn't work.

It seems like it needs to be entered as A20,M78.

The Instructions sheet doesn't detail this either (that I could see).

This is explained in the cell note at the top of the skills column. (Just hold your
cursor over the cell titled SKILLS, and it will explain.) The Instructions sheet does
mention the cell notes, but perhaps I should stress it more to make sure people know
that there is good information in the cell notes. (I use cell notes because they're
handy for putting information right where you need it.)

Let me know if you have any further problems.

Thanks,
Mike
