Peter, reviewing "Working with Styles" was going to be my first suggestion, so I'm glad you're doing that one. Here are my other suggestions, in order of priority: 1) Write another Calc chapter. 2) As Daniel suggested, you might look at the Data Sources chapter. In additon to reviewing the content, it needs reformatting to be consistent with our styles. If you could do that reformatting, that would be very helpful. For example, Dan used a lot of bold type where our style doesn't use bold; somehow a lot of the headings have ended up in the wrong font even though they are tagged with the correct style (I've seen that in other chapters; I don't know what causes it); and the numbered lists aren't in our style. 3) If you haven't already reviewed "Working with Writer" and would like to do some rewriting, that chapter can use all the help it can get. It is a mess at the moment. It's not really up for a review as much as a rewrite because I put together a bunch of material from several sources but did not have time to make the result coherent. For example, there is a lot of duplication of information and I think a lot of info that is too basic to be in there (explanations of what copy, cut, and paste are, for example). A thorough "machete edit" is what it needs: cut out all the extraneous stuff and make the rest readable. Does that sound like a good challenge for you? :-) Regards, Jean
