By being separate they calculate quicker and occupy less memory and only one INDEX line (to many in the list and you will not find the required tool) To start type |FLtools in PipeDream. Other basic commands are below :- |FT Top (ie VA) |FB (ie linter) |FN next and |FP previous in list. One word of warning! If you change sheets then the current one is saved, so if you have corrupted it (overtyped a formula) do |FLtools otherwise you will have to get the original from back up. Contents of tools.l a plain text file. va cogo impmet linter First on list va vertical alignment input bold values. However only input one out of the three K L ^%PC%(delta %PC%) and then K L and ST%PC% will be calculated using the non zero values. For straignts ^%PC% = 0 so use K =3e30. AT CH gives >%PC% and >LEV at the chainage (even off the element!)
