"Reveal Codes". Check Words' Help>WordPerfect Help>Reveal Codes. You will find there is no difference between the two. Word just does it differently. I too was a "Wordperfect holdout" up to ver 6.1, but when it came to using its macro language, I switched quickly to the friendly VBA environment (current WP uses VBA, not the old macro lang). In Word, I can launch a template document that includes VBA Code that connects to my RBase database, select one or a list of recipients that the doc goes to and let'er rip. No Merge list, etc. I also was a DOS holdout, dragged kicking and screaming to windows. I don't look back(although I frequently open a command window for some things that I can still do handily from there, but that is not typical of todays' users).

Too bad Novell has no clue how to market itself..... WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS (circa 1990) is in many ways a better wordprocessing program than any version of M$ Word.
