To "whoever runs the show," who was kind enough to reply to my posting complaint without pointing out my stupidity, and asked if I have suggestions for what more might be done. Now that I've figured out that all one has to do to post is to hit "Reply" and get "macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu", I would mildly suggest that running the Website address at the bottom of each message is slightly confusing -- one ought not to have to go to the Website to find out how to post (on the other hand, one oughtn't to be as stupid as I am, and should realize that just hitting "Reply" will do it). I'm still not sure just how one gets in (i.e. answers to) a given thread, but maybe that'll come. Beyond that, I might suggest that someone take a look (if you haven't) at the Appleworks Users Group Forum page (www.awug.org, I think). It's neat and clean and almost automatically saves dumb people like me from asking dumb questions about posting, threads, etc.
To Marta, You were also kind not to mention my thick skull, and it's good to know there's someone else out there who thinks the latest version of something is not always best. From the AWUG forum, I gather that the absence of Appleworks in versions above about 6.2.3 is the fault of OS X, not Appleworks. But now that I've got my macros back in AW 6.04, I don't really care who's to blame. To Bill, I think that with your Epson printer (with OS X), you can get "Economy" by going to "Copies and Pages," and selecting "Print settings" from the pulldown. That will give you another window, which has a button for "Custom." Clicking on that offers another pulldown, which has "Economy" on it. I hope that will work for you; can't guarantee it. Thanks to all for your forbearance. I learn a lot just from reading the posts daily. Nolan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
