[NLRS] RoverMania VI on the Web - spreadsheet error

[John (JK) Kalenowsky, K9JK]

Paul and others,

I have "my" Excel set to 'prompt' me about allowing Macros to 
run.

When I selected "Disable Macros" I received the results that 
Paul described after changing "My Grid".

When I selected "Enable Macros", I could change "My Grid" and 
the "Bearing" and "Km" DID change and update.

So...a 'solution' appears to be to "Enable Macros". Perhaps JT 
can confirm that Macros "need" to be enabled.

73, JK

On the master Excel spreadsheet, changing the value for My Grid 
produces
all errors in the Bearing and Km columns.
