I felt like you till I discovered how to change the "Mode" file within StrongEd so that Ctrl-XCV work in the "standard" way that I'm used to in other apps. (Can send you my amended file if you email me.) Then I added StrongEd to the apps that load automatically every time I boot the machine, in order to force myself to tackle the learning curve, and I'm glad I did. The ascent turned out to be not that bad. A few puzzles remain, such as a StrongEd keystroke to match Edit's handy Ctrl-F6 to un-split lines. -- Jim Nagel www.archivemag.co.uk || See you at the show? www.riscoslondonshow.co.uk Oct 25
