Ok, I may be opening a Pandora's box with this posting, but I need to know your preferred format of the Directory for the pending revision . The form that you will fill out dumps the data into a spreadsheet format similar to Excel. I do some tweaking of the information and save it as a spreadsheet. This format allows sorting of the columns for any number of purposes. LN takes this data and also creates a two column word processing document. This format does not allow for any sorting, but it can allow you to create mailing labels if necessary.
So, given the above explanations and with the understanding that this version of the Directory will be mostly done by me this time, what format is preferred? I don't mind doing both, but I would really like to streamline this process given the size the Directory has become, but I also want to provide a Directory that is user friendly to, well, the users.
I realize that many of you are very computer literate and twist and turn the Directory into a variety of formats once it is received, but these variations of the Directory are for personal use only and are not to be shared. Sorry to have to do this, but we need to take measures to ensure security of our data.
So, speak now, yadda, yadda,..........
Thanks! Only a few more weeks to the new Directory!
