Sorry I haven't updated things for a while, but comuter stuff is extremely taxing these days. As Matt said, the 7 weeks of daily radiation and chemo knocked me down a few times, especially when they tightened the ranges for the radiation, but we got through it ok. More to report after the 14th, when we do another MRI and CT scans to see if the tumor is returning or cancer is detected anywhere else. This, of course is the "biggie" with this tumor type.

Thanks again for your prayers, well wishes, and moral support, it is really appreciated!!

Ray

Been quite some time since I have communicated with you Raybo, but it is true I think of you often. Stay strong. Hope to see and hear much more from you in the future.

I am curious but it could be possible that Ray has passed if he is not responding on the thread I hope not.. I actually sent him an email as i found his excel website for handicapping to be interesting although heavily information based, to me its his version of Black Magic and probably a lot cheaper. His demeanor in his videos are one of a truly laid back and classy guy. I do not have Excel and was wondering if there was a place I could try out his software or download it. I only have google docs. Would it work for that, sorry not a techie guy?

That's a problem. I'm pretty sure it won't work in Google Docs, which doesn't support Excel macros. Nor will it work in Microsoft's free cloud version of Excel, for the same reason. You might get it to work in one of the freeware spreadsheets like Open Office Calc, etc. but I suspect you'd have to do some serious tweaking to run the macros.

Raybo stated in his blog that the software runs best on pre-2007 versions of Excel. If you shop around on the web you can find those versions for around $20 or less.

Good luck!

Ray is still with us. I emailed him the other day. However, his health issues no longer make it possible for him to work on Excel.
