This list *is* great, but it works on many levels. Please don't feel intimidated by the complicated stuff- it's only on the list because someone wanted to discuss it. If you want to discuss *anything* at any level then go ahead and ask. Remember, everyone here was clueless about something when they started (and I still am...) It would be helpful if you did a little research before posting your question. You might find that a similar topic has appeared on the list in the past (use Google), however, most things are user-specific and seem to stem from the particular and unique combination of hardware and software that people have. There is no substitute for asking and getting a whole bunch of "Have you tried...?". You are right, Oxford is a bit of a way out to get to meetings, but you can participate fully in the group via the list. Attendance to meetings is not compulsory! Ask away... Andy
