    Can anybody help have down loaded the spreadsheet and also signed up for free trial of Microsoft office but I can't seem to be able to type anything in the column where am I going wrong??? sorry not very computer minded If I can't sort this out will do it manually....If I get it to work do I just press button 1 and does it automatically enter the words???? sorry I'm a bit dim!!!
    betty its worked on my moms pc but not my laptop ... how annoying
    but it prompted me to enable editing which then disabled macros,luckily then it prompted me to enable again
    so it's there open and every 30 mins I click the sun link ...
    how desperate do I sound eh ?

    Have you enabled macros? This spreadsheet needs them enabled to work. There's a quick link here:

    If I get it to work do I just press button 1 and does it automatically enter the words???? sorry I'm a bit dim!!!

    That's the basic idea, if it finds a code it thinks has worked it will pop-up a message.

    It's early days though, before we can test the spreadsheet we can't be sure it's going to work straight off. If it all works 100% the same as last year then we'll be fine.

    As the other thread here is getting really long I thought I would start one for those interested in cracking the code.

    Please only used this page for comments about cracking the code tomorrow. There are other links such as the one above where questions can be asked about the holidays etc.

    As I understand things, it is hoped that the booking page will become live around 4-5pm Tomorrow (Monday 16th Jan). So those wanting to particapate in the code cracking need to be available around this time.

    As per last year I suggestion is we put our names against the letter we indend to cover.

    Exciting times....enjoy :j :j :j

    Updated Monday 16th Jan I believe this is the list so far of who is doing which letter(s). Yell if you see an issue...
