I decided to sort of roll my own solution, building on org mode spreadsheet tables. Basically, it just inserts the grid, puts in the formulae, replaces the date placeholder with the current date and time unless it gets a numeric arg. If anyone is interested in this (probably ugly and inefficient) code, let me know and I will provide it. I was attempting to write something that would prompt for values, compute correctionals and boluses and insert them into the table but ran into several issues I could not readily figure out. I have spent too much time on this already, so I stopped with something that works mostly. Maybe one day I will revisit this issue and create a proper mode to address this problem. Thanks again, rdc -- Robert D. Crawford robdcraw@gmail.com The chicken that clucks the loudest is the one most likely to show up at the steam fitters' picnic.
