Spell planner improvements
This update improves the Spell planners in the same manner that appear in TOS 2nd: The description of spells has been merged with the 'Higher level' text, as to create a large area which will be more efficient to display Spell information! Many spells don't have 'at Higher Level' entries, so this allows spells to have a larger description!
Button updates!
This update changes the way the Button on the Control sheet works. The old OLEFormat was removed, which seems to be incompatible with newer versions of Excel. It is now also possible to dismiss the Update Window using the ESC key.
Racial Language support

Support for Foundry VTT!
I am happy to report that I have created an Export function that will allow TOS FIVE users to Export their Character to the newly released Foundry virtual tabletop! The Control sheet has a new section to handle this. Obviously, You must own Foundry VTT to be able to use this new function. Foundry VTT is a pretty solid offering that was release less than a week ago and offers much for a virtual tabletop... Check it out!
The Control sheet was modified to make space for the FVTT Export section
Added the Conditional Immunity effect for all conditions
The Bard's Magical Secrets were adding spells known that should not have been added
Everyone is upgraded to Expert!
The option to use TOS FIVE as an Expert user has been removed. Now, the Back sheet will always show what it can show, and the top will advise the user if any options still remain un-selected on the Customize sheet. The ability to see everything makes it easier to see which missing option is left to fulfill. Remember that any missing information is displayed using this format: ►example of Warning/Error text◄
Removed the Use TOS FIVE as an Expert user option from the Control sheet
Added Usage1 to Usage10 named cells to access the Checkmarks directly
If an Arcane Tradition does not have a "Savant" entry, then it will be ignored (as opposed to showing an empty bullet)
Subraces creation made easy!
The ability to fetch an existing Race and plug it directly in the Custom Race area has been added in this build. This allows you to either tweak an existing race or to create a subrace from an existing race. This will make creating these races much quicker.
Extra feature slot available!
The ability to define an extra feature (or more), which is perfect to support things like Supernatural Gifts, has been added in this update.
Added a Fetch Race button on the Race sheet
Added the ability to define an Extra feature, which can be used to create "Supernatural Gifts" detailed in the DMG
Added a new option check mark on the Control sheet: At startup, display version control. If unchecked, the Version Control window will not appear at startup unless a NEW version of TOS FIVE has been detected!

The STR/DEX-Based Attack Rolls effect was not working for weapon slots 2 to 6
Reduced the description of about 20 spells so they can fit the description on the Spell Planner
Weapons with special damage were adding two plus sign in the damage section on the Front sheet
The Cleric's Destroy Undead class feature was using "HD" (hit die) instead of Challenge Rating (CR) and it could go up to CR5 instead of CR4
A custom Class can now have a custom spell list!
This new update to TOS FIVE allows a custom class to gain a different spell list from the Core classes. So a custom class could have a mix of spells unlike any of the existing classes!! The changes to the Spell table means that you will have to update your ADD-ONS (if you use any), as the format for spells. This functions exactly like in TOS+, so the existing documentation remains valid.
Added the ability to create custom spell lists for custom classes
Creating a custom class based on a Core class facilitated!
The ability to fetch an existing class and 'paste' it in one of the Custom Class slots has been added in this build. This will greatly facilitate the creation of a custom class that are similar to an existing class!

Added a Fetch Existing Class button to fill one of the custom class slot with one of the core classes
Fixed the modifier source combo-box for Death Save: Failure, Death Save: Success, Exhaustion and Resting
Microsoft Upgraded the Formula Language in Excel!
The newer versions of Excel have made changes to the formula language of Excel, which can cause issues in existing Products (details here: https://theonlysheet.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=12127 ). This new build of the Sheet fixes these issues (hopefully all of them!) so that the Sheet remains compatible with all version of PC Excel, from Excel 2007 to the latest Excel 365! If you are experiencing issues, be sure to report it in the Gremlin section of the forum, using the issue reporting form found therein!
Spells Planners for Custom Classes
I added the ability to define the spell list that a Custom Class can use, when it is a casting class! A new entry in the custom class section lets you define which spell list your casting class has access to. So basically, this lets you use the Spell Planners for your custom classes.
Added the ability to define a spell list for a Custom Class
Modified ParseEffect() {http://bit.ly/3UOejry} to better support new version of Excel
In the Version Control form, the TOS FIVE logo has been moved outside of the window (for faster downloads of version Info)
