Hi all,

A spreadsheet is a good way for a sighted person to keep track of
information.  The reason I qualify this remark is that for a blind
person, looking at a spreadsheet, unless the information is in hard
copy Braille, is difficult.   The idea behind a spreadsheet is that
you are able to see an intire picture of your data easily because it
is in columns.  If you understand graph paper, then you can understand
a spreadsheet.

Terry's nut sales problem could be easily solved in Windows by using
Excel.  All the data would be placed into the spreadsheet and it would
be calculated for her as well.  Spreadsheets are a nifty math tool.
I use Excel when doing timesheets for my students.  

I dunnow about having a spread sheet available for the BN, it might
work, it might not.
