Thanks greatly! I was way off on the wrong track-and I even understand the program except for the reason for the last line. I assume that's an error trap in case I stupidly enter a rating higher than 10? (I haven't found a way to limit the input in an integer column but don't consider that critical since I'm the only one that'll be using this.)

Also, is there a limit to the length of an argument? I noticed you broke the list up into 3 sections & then concatenated them. Was that just for readability? I'll probably reduce the length of some of the items (e.g. 'Unfinished' rather than 'so bad I couldn't finish it') when I actually implement this. Thanks again.
