I've just downloaded the calendar blank, Dilwyn, and I only have
Open Office 3 to display it. It is haywire.
Jan, Feb ok. March & April titles together and no calendar. May
no calendar. June title below calendar. July to Sept no calendar.
and Dec ok. I was just about to send it to someone to add photos for
me. I've not had trouble with .doc files before. I've downloaded
it twice to make sure.

Hmm, Word doc compatibility with this sort of thing seems to fall
flat on its face when it comes to OO, Works (which is a M$ package!),
and other such "office" programs. The layout, especially when
involving tables, frames and text boxes becomes a right mess in
anything I've tried on other such programs. As Billy has said, it
works fine as a PDF file, but I may need to greatly simplify the
layout for the doc to load into other programs (so much for compatibility!!!).
They were generated from a calendar wizard template originally, so I
suspect it might be hard to simplify, but I'll have a go later tonight.
This proved to be a harder nut to crack than I thought. All my efforts
so far have yielded similar results. I don't have Open Office
installed, but whatever I do with M$ Works causes the same "scrambled
layout".
Work in progress....

Hi Dilwyn,
It is worth installing Open Office, anyway.
It has all the features and is easy to use.
