mathetes hey John, not to give you a hard time but I guess you are so lazy you forgot to attach your workbook. LOL. Sry I couldn't resist the poke. But seriously, I absolutely agree with you that another format would be much more efficient so updated my sheet with a recommended format. I'm curious how closely it will match your sheet.

You took it all to the next level. Great job!
The only "improvement" left would be to put the basic tables in the background (on a separate sheet) and have a "front page" where one selects the language desired and gets the resulting list.
- mtarlerDec 13, 2022Silver ContributorI completely agree but kept them on the same sheet to show the 2 different approaches and leave it to the user to move the components to their own sheets. I also feel when the components are on different sheets it makes it harder for the user to see how they all work together.
- mathetesDec 13, 2022Gold ContributorWith which I completely agree. My point was that the user, once understanding how it all works together, has "a nicer looking" workbook when "background stuff" is in the background, "foreground" in the foreground. And wanted the user to know that's possible.
