OK, I downloaded that and opened in 1.3.3.13svn It is a bit tricky but first of all open the layers dialog Unlock everything Select Calendar text and select January OK so far? Now save it somewhere, give it a new name, test.sla You should be able to reopen without any problems Doing it in 1.3.5 has some problem with the flubber font but I amnot going to chase this up If you go to edit->styles, you will be able to change the styles for various elements Owen
