Hi Achim
Threads for Lace is actually a Word document plus a couple of Adobe
Illustrator files, and the Addenda lists are html tables. It's never
been in a spreadsheet format.
Would a scan of text put into an Excel document be searchable/sortable?
Presumably you'd need OCR software.
I have a little program (free from somewhere on the web I think) called
Book2Pod which lets you put Word docs onto an iPod but because it's
such a big file it splits it into 'chapters' which have absolutely
nothing to do with the chapters in the book! so finding the right page
is rather hit or miss. Consequently I don't use it, even though it's
there to look at on my iPod. I also have a copy of the Word file on
the iPod hard drive - not to mention the CD, memory stick and website
back-ups!

I wish there was a sheet like this for e.g. Brenda's thread sizes ...
in
fact I think of scanning it and put it into a spreadsheet (for
personal use
only, of course).
