I would like to do something like that. I just have not done much
programing of late. I want to learn Xcode, but my mental processes have
slowed down.

When I was doing more serious programing was about 20 years ago using a
Mac II and Pascal. I was able to make system calls from information in
the Maciontosh "telephone books."

Two of the things I did were:

1. Use low level printer functions for an Imagewriter 2 to prepare
mailing labels from a data base in Excel.

2. In a spreadsheet, I had a list of tones, pitch, duration, and
intensity.

In both cases, I called snippets of executable code from Excel.
