Alpine - Thanks, I was starting to get confused about reprogramming the CVs on my decoders. I'll have to wait though to do this, but I have a few trains with the new Digitrax DZ 125 decoder that have to have this done.

I've posted the first spreadsheet of what will eventually be several. I don't know if the instructions are clear enough, but here it is:

Thanks!

 

But the problem is that my spreadsheet uses Numbers-specific functions that don't exist in Excel, so that method doesn't work. I need to figure out which functions those are (I just get a generic error message when I try to export), and figure out how to do the same thing in Excel. But I don't have a copy of Excel, so I can't really do that…which is why I need help :D
