This is my dilemma. I wanted to send my resume to a local job bank via
email but I don't have word97 and they don't have Wordperfect and never the
twain shall meet. Essentially this means copy the beast into pure text,
paste into notepad and send sans format. Not my preferred solution.
Perhaps HTML would be the appropriate. Also, I might have tried faxing it,
but I've never really figured that technology out. Never really bothered
to find out what's wrong with my modem either. I'm too busy.
