Hi,

There are a few problems with making it compatible with the older
versions. The first is file size. The file ends up 5 times bigger. The
main problem is that the old version of excel doesn't have all the
features needed to make the sheet work properly. So some thing won't
work, and some will result in a visualbasic error. The other problem
is I don't have 97 so can't test if it works at all.

If your still keen, I have save an older 97 version for you to try.

Let me know how you go.

I'm not that interested in market or anything, as it's free. I made it
because I was bored and the paid software sucked.

It is funny the people that are using it though. Design engineers in
large trucking companies, large car companies, uni students with their
thesis and heaps of others. They have all told me it's very accurate.

Cheers,
Wes
