Hallo Hanno,
The cosmetic change I want, is for the colums until 37 degrees. Because the forms must be filled with 4 digits from the havesine table, you have by lower degrees to think to fill the trailing zeros. For instance for 7 degrees the table gives 37, you have to fill in the form 0037, I forget that easy. I know you get stranges answers if 37 is filled instead of 0037. But for me it is easier if in the table is written 0037. Saves me for wrong thinking. So I want to change the table with trailing zeros.
regards,
Herman
