Beth,
I did do a scandisk, then installed the jfw .31 patch which was over
written by the reinstall of jfw. I cannot believe it, but it fixed the
problem in eudora with the freeze and freak out of dec express. now though,
instead of that problem, another arose. Now it reads similar to outllok
express. It reads down one batch of text, then stops, and if I down arrow a
few times, it starts reading from above where it actually stopped. So then
I have to down arrow a few times to get to the point in which it stoped
reading, and one line at a time I must down arrow to read my email.
Hope this makes sense.
1) open email.
Now hit insert/2 and begins reading.
Now stops in middle of mail.
When I hit a down arrow, it starts reading some lines I've already read.
So, I quickly down arrow past the alrady read lines to the stopping point,
and read on line by line till the end.
What could that be?
