Hi Eric, When I first started trying this out on Friday, it was a non-existent account (actually, existent but needed to be activated). Then I tried it with regular accounts, with the results I explained in my email. Today it seems better behaved, although I have not reused the 2 documents I was playing with on Friday, for fear that they could be corrupt or something like that :-( -Patricia
