Sorry for the delay - I have the project page online for Phoenix now!
http://www.lynxmotion.com/images/html/proj098.htm

The PEP (Phoenix Excel Program) and manual can be downloaded from the project page. Please note that the manual is still in a beta stage, and is not yet complete. If you have any questions or comments please post here.

Are there plans for an English translation?

Hi A-Bot,
Exactly what part do you want to be translated?

Hi Zenta, I'm a big fan of your work.

More specifically, all the non-English words. :D I don't understand the words in the titles, column names, and comments.

I'm buying this kit, so I'd like to understand... :? I guess I could use an online translator to work out a rough translation. I imagine most people viewing this will feel the same.

I suppose you have downloaded PEP ver 1.03 and the beta manual?
If you refer to the old screendump of the sequences sheet they are already translated. My comments on the sequences are not translated, that should not be a problem. But if you refer to all my cryptic comments in the VB code (have to warn you about the messy code though..), translating them is not on my priority list..

A-Bot, did you meant this:

Zenta,

You're right, most of it is translated now. I guess the "Kommentar" column would be nice to have, as well as the headings on the lower part of the Body & Coxa sheet.

I'm just now starting to dig into and try to understand. I'm not complaining at all; I think it's great that you are willing to share your work.

Hi!
When I find time for it I'll translate these parts. (Kommentar = Comment.. Not so different :lol: I'll change that too). I didn't thought the lower part of Body & Coxa would be so interesting.

Have you read the manual? What do you think of it so far?

Ok, I see ... your latest changes are not on the Lynxmotion site. All of the "Comments" are still in Swedish (at least I'm guessing it's Swedish).

The manual looks great. I'll provide more feedback once I've spent more time with it. I'll be studying it very closely once I get my Phoenix kit!

Thanks!

OK, first.. I'm from Norway NOT Sweden... :wink: :lol:
A good translater is TriTrans http://www.tritrans.net/

The comments are not translated yet. I'll fix that too.
Actually, at this moment I'm implementing two more legs for the PEP sheet for my Oxyopus (Octapod).

I hope you get your Phoenix soon!

I just opened up zenta's PEP in OpenOffice.Org v2.0! I will have to read the manual and see if this actually works with Open Office. If so, anyone will be able to use it and not have to have Microsoft Office. :)

OpenOffice.Org is available for Windows and Linux/UNIX. ;)

Hi!

Cool! I hope it work for you. Remember to activate macros. Is it possible to edit VB-code in OpenOffice too?

Try to read some steps in a sequences, if that works I think everything is OK.

How is the respons (speed)? I experienced that Excel 2003 is much slower than Excel 2000.
Please give us a hint if it seems to work OK. :wink:

I did activate macros. :) I do not know about VB-code, and am not sure how to check if that works.

If you have an example I can load up and try, that would be great - something you know works. I will dig into this more when I have time, because I hope to eventually build a multi-legged creature of my own. :D Maybe I will mange to do that in 2008, as well as complete The BiPod.. ;)

I will check it out and let you know. I don't have a real reference though, since I have never used Excel or other Microsoft Office programs. Open Office as always opened any MS Office documents I have needed to read. :)
