It has been several years since I needed to know that information and had to look it up.

lol water right!
Maybe I should have limited that to heating Polymer chemicals

Really? IF thats what you think, I've got a live steam vent I want you to sniff. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Everything is dangerous once you get it outside a pretty narrow temperature window: that's a property of organic life forms, not of the material being heated!

Just be sure to put the current cover sheet on it. Do you need a copy?
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

I had to do something that sounded almost similar, but I had to do it in a windows form (so they could change values in the report and use it to drive another system for planning the quarter's sales). I used whatever flavor of a DataGrid was popular in .NET 2.0 and had everything working reasonably.
There was too much information, so they added requirements for colors, fonts, etc. to make it easier to read. I quickly found out that you can change the fonts for a grid. You can change it for a row. You can change it for a column. But when you start changing settings PER CELL performance goes to unusable. 
It was funny to me.
Amazingly, it became a stable of the business. It looked like a Christmas Tree with all the flashing data.

Nah - think of 4 point...

He's using 8 point: 8pt
I'm suggesting 4 point: 4pt

Since it would take hours of paid labor to make it fit with 8pt, the cost of the microscope (or magnifying glass) is cheaper and therefore the better solution.

Nope, it's gotta fit on standard 8.5 X 11 and 8 pt. is the smallest font I can use...and I just found out it she wants everything boxed. 
Oh well, toner is so inexpensive these days...and I know a good supply!

Seems like the amount of data won't possibly fit on the paper that's being asked for ...

I'm usually pretty good with acronyms, having worked in defense, but I didn't see that one coming.

Read every post on the Lounge every day. Memorize what Nagy ate, Dalek drank, and JSOP drove, or shot. Get all your news, here.
On QA forums post soliloquies and rants; remember the OP never knew what they really wanted, let alone needed.
Works for me.
cheers, Bill

Silly question Bill: This disappeared for a couple of minutes - was that you or did the hamsters eat it?

Hi OG, because I am only in the initial, highly uncertain, phase of becoming a Quantum Developer, I am not at liberty to say which because: whichever I said it was would be what it was; and, I think the world is so much more beautiful seen ambiguously ... do you ?
By the way, my sincere congratulations on your achieving millionaire status: you "paid the iron price" !
yours, Bill

Thank you my friend!
As a Quantum Developer, can you know both how much code you have written and how many bugs it has?

so at least 728 data cells per cost center/page. Formatting is all over the place as lines contain different types of data, some dollar values, some ratios, etc. Even at 8 pt. it will be tough getting it all to fit. 
Oh yeah, it needs to be done by tomorrow.
