1/26 changing meters question

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but we are in the process of switching to the Relion Premier Classic so I need to get Simon's spreadsheet updated accordingly. Can anyone help? TIA.

In addition (and this is really a good one) we bought the meter at our local WalMart, but when we got it home realized it didn't contain any "control solution" so we could check it. Upon calling Relion, we were informed that they don't sell it at WalMart due to the short "shelf life"! They are going to send us some and it should be here in a week.

We checked Simon +5 with both meters side by side, and he was 286 on the Relion and 412 on the AlphaTrak.
 
With the spreadsheet, block a line and you can indicate that you switched meters. Some people will block the cells and then merge the cells and write in that they switched to a new meter.

There is obviously a difference between how the 2 different meters are calibrated. As the BG levels increase, the difference between the meters becomes greater. For example, the dose reduction number (if using TR) is 50 on a human meter and 68 on the AT.

FWIW, I never used a control solution with a Bayer Contour.
 
Not sure what "block a line" means, sorry! I have limited spreadsheet experience (obviously). Also, how do the colors of the number ranges get changed to reflect the new scale?
