I believe that flags it as text data.              Well, that does allow me to capitalize the name of the trail.       Unfortunately, it now has a (quite visible) leading single quote.              With your suggestion as a hint, I tried using "Format Cells" to change       the cell from "General" to "Text". That didn't help, either.              --       Michael F.
