New cache waiting to be published

I fixed file 51.csv and hopefully that is the last error. Good luck and if any one has trouble, just post your questions here.

I was very intrigued by the DeLorme Challenge when I saw it but I probably will never get to log it.

When I saw what TAT had done with filters for GSAK it got my mind going to see what areas that I had gotten done. I worked on an EXCEL spreadsheet that can be used to find what index sheet they are in. It can accept data from a GSAK .csv file as input. If you enter all the Maine caches it provides insight into how many caches are in each index. If you just enter your “found” caches you will know where you have to go yet.

TAT has been a great help and has agreed to host the spreadsheet in an area where all can view it and download it to use. BE FORWARNED IT IS A 7 Mb file and will take some time if you are on dial-up. The data in the file now is from a Pocket Query run on 06/05/06 and includes 1205 caches that are active or unavailable. No archived caches.

You can go here to get the spreadsheet

I hope it helps.

Once again Sabby, you impress me with your mad excel skills
I like the last one where you put the maps in the right graphical order.
Thanks.

Where do you guys come up with stuff. This is awesome. Thanks so much. I feel pretty lucky that I have already got some of the harder maps complete. I will be interested to see how many I have. I will play with that spread sheet and my cache page and see how many I have left.

You guys are the greatest.

Now that I downloaded the excel spreadsheet it is asking me what to use to open it with. So what do I use to open it with? I know I am puter illiterate.

Open it with Excel! LOL!

(It's a Microsoft spreadsheet program)

I suspect, John, that you do not have MS Excel on your computer. You could try the free Open Office software, available here:

http://www.openoffice.org/

which has an Excel compatible spreadsheet (though some advanced features may work differently or not at all). Be forewarned, it is a large download.

Cheryl and I are enjoying all of the buzz going on here. You folks certianly have shown your creativeness on creating something to solve your cache finds in each index page. I give all of you an A+. I was afraid no one would like the challenge but I think I was wrong....

The two biggest challenges are going to be getting enough time off from work to make the long drives north, and that nasty gas card bill at the end of the month
Planning this one has gotten the thinking cap working hard, thanks for the challenge.
