Dear yicaoting & d_labes,

thanks for your kind advice.
Real life can be very cruel: I do not have SAS or Excel. I only have OpenOffice and R. Client-side the situation is typically Excel* and sometimes without admin. privileges to install anything else.

As far as I can see, OpenOffice Calc seems to have some limited options for programming in basic (not visual, though). It seems a slight waste of time to me if I make some code in OpenOffice Calc basic here which does not execute on the client's Excel machines. It's difficult to check in the absence of Excel here :-D
If I could find a portable (I mean portable between OOC and Excel) way to call a DLL, then I can prolly write the code in C or Delphi for that DLL and make it do approximately what I want. But that's an uphill struggle. Please do let me know if you have ideas along these lines.

Pass or fail!
