Maybe: Word or other programs may use the star unspaced and repeated (twice or more) symbol as a code for something - think of the hiding of passwords, even. However, you could also do it as follows. leave a number of blank linds, and on one of these blanks type **** . Then down-arrow to the last blank line. I believe you could also do ** ** [leaving a space between the stars]. In other words, you can have as many stars as you want provided that you put space after every couple.

(smile) You are right that will work but do you know why it has to be done that way?
