Also, having to email the proggie is a bummer ... why not posting it here? (I have to open hotmail, blah blah blah and it always works bad)
OH NOES!11!!!11!
OMG you gave away the secret answer!!!1!!1!
Actually I'd forgotten that QB actually has a TAN function. I think the Pascal manual instructs you to calculate a TAN using SIN/COS, which I always thought of as rather inefficient... fortunately you'd never in a practical situation use anything but SIN, COS, and ATN.
