I have received responses that some of you were not able to open up the Excel
spreadsheet.  Here is the short version:

AWG 30= 0.051mm2  (0.05)
AWG 28= 0.086mm2  (0.1)
AWG 26= 0.13mm2   (0.15)
AWG 24=  0.203mm2 (0.2)
AWG 22=0.317mm2 (0.3)
AWG 20=0.519mm2 (0.5)
AWG  18=0.811mm2 (0.87 or 1.0)
AWG 16=1.318mm2  (1.25 or 1.5)
AWG 14= 2.075mm2 (2.0)
AWG  12=3.325mm2  (3.25 or 3.5)
AWG  10=5.272mm2  (5.25 or 5.5)
AWG   8=8.432mm2  (8.5)
AWG   6=13.298mm2  (13.25 or 13.5)
AWG   4=21.087mm2  (20.0 or 21.0)
AWG   2=33.728mm2   (35.0)
AWG   1=42.32mm2     (40.0 or 45.0)
AWG   0=53.52mm2     (55.0)
AWG 00= 67.506mm2  (65.0 or 70.0)
AWG 000= 85.178mm2 (85.0)
AWG  0000 =107.219mm2  (105.0 or 110.0)

I hope this helps. The numbers in ( ) are the closest mm2 equivalent.
