Need a vector of 16 dataframes written to 16 worksheets in one workbook ... no problem, ... worked the first time (at least it did so once I realized I needed to follow the directions in the help page exactly as they were written :-).

If you have suggestions on improving the INSTALL file or help page content, let me know.  :-)
