Not really helpful...
I broke out an old copy of Vern Buerg's LIST utility and began to analyze the structure of the Excel file that contained the terminology I need.
I finally doped out how (most) of the entries are stored, and it's really pretty straightforward to write a program to extract them (I did, using Turbo C++), but I'm obviously missing something, because every once in a while, the text goes blooey! and I end up with garbage for some number of entries until things synch back up.
Embedding a glossary in Excel is stupid! It's like keeping track of your checkbook using Word.
And I am still on page 4 of 25, due tomorrow evening. Criminy.
Cheers...
