Margaret, No, the items open ok in Word or Word pad, and when I copy and paste them into Legacy Notes they appear ok, but I save it and then go into it later, it is just all of these figures and letters. It used to work ok once, but not any more. The computer is only 18 months old and quite powerful and no other problems. To overcome the problem I have been entering these notes into the "pictures" and it works ok, but would like to put them where they should go. The notes that I entered before the last few months, are still quite ok. Thanks for helping, Guy.

It used to work ok but not any more, yet it still works ok on our laptop. Both computers are using Windows 7. Can someone please help me and tell me what I am doing wrong. Please make your answer simple as I am an old man.
