Actually, I believe you'll discover as you get older that now is the BEST time to ask for and get what you need. Or haven't you ever heard of a little something called "honeymoon"? (:>) Another thing you'll discover is that $100 is absolutely nothing compared to productivity gains. It pays for itself many times. It seems like a lot to you because you're used to universty-student budgets, and we all can empathize with that mindset. But you're in the business world now, and you need what you need. Of course, you've already been told about how you have a built-in capability to program 8 macros for tools . As for the reply that said having only 8 is "...woefuly inadequate for the serious user," I disagree. The point is not that there are more than 8 tools, the point is that you proably can think of the 8 you use the most and select those for the macros. For the less-used tools, they're but a tool pallete away. And while I'm at it, let me put a plug in for using a trackball--it's great for people who must access toolbars and pallettes frequently. Just spin that sucker and go... As for: >My problem now... the computer they gave me to use at work is a Mac. Well, we Mac users would call that a wonderful, life-changing opportunity that's been handed to you...heh heh Richard _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
