Donna
With all the data input necessary to make these reports available on
Clayart, part of my text is standard auto text. In this case, it did not
apply.

To help better understanding in the future, I could change the auto text to

Substitutions for any given recipe are:
Frit 3124 Subbede with local Boron Frit
Gerstley Borate with Boron Frit
Feldspars with Feldspat spar

Those are my standard subs.

that should sort it all out.

Best regards from Alisa in Denmark
