Betty, Emails are usually sent in one of two formats: Plain Text and HTML, the former is as you would get when using Notebook and the latter is the style used for web pages. At one time it was the rule that only Plain Text could be used on LUG, but that has (unfortunately) been relaxed.
The setting in Yahoo my well vary depending on which version you are using. On mine, which I think is the latest, after clicking 'Reply' to a post, on the extreme right (you may need to move your horizontal scroll), and on the row above the style tabs ( type face, bold etc.) there is a box 'Switch to Plain Text' - just click that and answer 'Yes' when being told it will remove all the formatting, which it will :-). If it isn't there on your version just keep looking at all the boxes in the 'Reply' tool bars until you find it. If you have run Check/Repair two or three times and you are still getting the message, I would check whether the problem is still there and, if so, follow Dennis's suggestion, before trying an uninstall/reinstall.

What are you getting? This is Arial 14, is that it? I noticed that it came through in replies larger. Seems like other sites I send to return it smaller when replying. Tired tonight, will start again tomorrow. (Not my very last problem Dennis, just my most current.. :-) ) I kept running the Repair file, will see if I can determine what that did. Betty FL Betty FL Thanks, Dennis sounds like it's worth having a go at. Are you OK with doing that Betty? If not please come back for an explanation of how to do it. And please set your Yahoo email client to Plain Text, so that the three of us are kept in the loop. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ -----Original Message----- From: Dennis M.

Hi Ron, Thanks for reposting in plain text. Speaking to Betty's very last problem... AFAIK, tblXI (deleted individuals) and tblXM (deleted marriages) get populated when the user chooses to "Reuse abandoned RINs" on the Options > Customize > Data Defaults screen (in V6). If either of these tables gets corrupted, you can try unchecking the "Reuse abandoned RINs" (close and restart Legacy for good measure). Then go back and check "Reuse abandoned RINs". This should cause Legacy to rebuild those tables. If that doesn't work, then I would contact support and get one-on-one help. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools/Custom Programming) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.
