[DeTomaso] Pantera-Gearhead Database Update

[SOBill at aol.com]

Today I updated the Pantera/Gearhead  Database. 
The database is stored in Excel format  (Pantera_Information.xls, ~ 1,124 
kbytes) and is also stored as a compressed  Excel file (Pantera_Information.zip 
~414 kbytes). The database is passive, as it  contains no macros. 
To use the database, @www.members.aol.com/sobill,  left click on 
Pantera_Information.xls. The database will open in Excel in your  browser window. 
The database consists of many lines organized as two  columns. Column A 
contains the topics (Clutch, ZF, Cooling System, Suspension,  etc.) in alphabetical 
order. Column B contains some information item pertinent  to the topic. 
The database contains 7,815 lines. 411 lines were  added in this update.  The 
new lines  are at the bottom of the database following the item labeled ZZZZZ 
NEW ITEMS in  column A.  These new items will be  incorporated into the body 
of the database at the next update.  I am doing this so the database users  
can easily review newly added items. Many of the data items are taken from the  
DeTomaso Forum and many others are items of Gearhead interest (I hope) that I  
have gathered in my surfing. 

A  basic way to find data in the database: 
1)       Left click the mouse on  the Edit function on the Excel Toolbar at 
the top of the  screen. 
2)       Point to “Find” on the  Edit function menu and left click the 
mouse. 
3)       A window will open. In  this window type any partial word, word, or 
phrase in which you are  interested. 
4)       Select “Find Next” and  left click the mouse. 
5)       The Find function will  highlight the next occurrence in the 
database of what you entered in 3) above.  It will find what you entered even if what 
you entered is embedded in a larger  word (cam = campy = lunaticamshafts). 
The Find function is not case sensitive  (Bosch = bosch). 
6)       Each time you click “Find  Next” the Find function will advance to 
and highlight the next  occurrence. 
7)       If no match to your entry  is found, a window will open to tell you 
that no match  exists. 
Either version of the database may be downloaded by  right clicking on the 
desired file and using the “Save Target As” function of  your browser. 
Please send me any suggestions, corrections, or data  you would like to have 
added.
