Hi - I really appreciate your continued support with this.

 

I really like what you've done and it's 100% new stuff for me which is great, but...

I have uploaded an example file of how the data that is loaded might look:  https://1drv.ms/x/s!AjZk93r8SbJKg22k7Vh1vMJNWbN2?e=woKmml 

 

So each Change has it's own ref (which is unique) and a notes field with all the useful information in.


Thanks again!
