      To Mr. Smith
Thanks for the procedure instruction.  I really appreciate it. I will try to do 
my best to learn the proper procedures, but I am both, old and slow.  I hate to 
be dragged, kicking and screaming, into the information and electronic age.
      FYI, I don't know how my responses appear as though I am "forwarding   
my replies, because I am actually using the "reply" button in my OE mail 
window. 
      I just sent another post repeating my bug issue, but it was before I read 
this one.  Sorry.

       Tim
