I'd like to get a feel for what versions of Excel people are using to run KM in the real world.

Mark, you might want to add an option for selecting Excel version and use RM not just prefer RM. I use them both.

I just want to get a feel for what versions of Excel are being used. If you're using KM at all, you should select the appropriate version. The RM entry was intended for people who don't, won't, or can't use Excel, so I've changed it to "Don't have or use Excel".

Just to clarify, this isn't a KM vs RM poll. I'm basically interested in finding out how many people are still using Excel 97. I've had a few problems in the past implementing features in KM while trying to maintain compatibility with all Excel versions (not an easy task thanks to the folks in Redmond).

The latest error reports are most likely 97-specific. Before I code a work-around (if it's even possible), I'd just like to know what the exposure is.

Depends what machine I'm using. I have 97 on some machines and 2000 on others.
