file created entirely within 5.3.3.2 - no prestige elite

I accidentally uploaded this to the wrong report earlier. This file is created
totally from scratch. Prestige Elite and Excel are not involved. All you have
to do is create new cells that use more than one font and mixed attributed like
superscript, bold, and grey font color. At a certain point you will lose the
ability to do a mass-change of all of the font sizes (or other attributes) of a
selection of more than one cell.

The ability to select a range of cells and change them all to 10 pt size is not
minor or trivial or an enhancement. It's a fundamental requirement of the
program. This is why I'm so horrified that you guys did all the work to add
what you ironically call "styles" without allowing a "style" than lets you
change only one class of attribute such as changing to 10 pt and NOT changing
anything else. So not only is "styles" a cruel joke, but the user can't even
manually select a range of cells and change the desired attribute with the
formatting toolbar - much less save time with "styles".

I have now been using this program full time for almost 2 months - 7 days a
week - no formulas, no math - just formatting. It is broken - not trivially
broken, not broken in a minor way, not broken in an "enhancement request" way -
it is fundamentally broken.
