What you want to do is download and install PopChar, which puts a little icon in the position of your choice in the menu bar. Then when you want a "special" character just click on the icon and a windoid showing all the characters in your current font appears -- click on the one you want, it "pops" into your document and the windoid dissappears! (If you don't see what you want in your current font, you can choose from any others you have installed from within the windoid.) -- Selah! Bwms -= Apparently if you play a Windows CD backwards you hear satanic messages. You think that's bad? If you play it forwards it installs Windows! =- ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
