My wife expects a computer program to operate like a toaster: put the bread in and press a button. The toaster does the rest. To her, Picasa is basically like that. It's easy for her to accomplish this particular email task. I am stuck in my ways and as a geezer, entitled to stay that way. I am unlikely to evaluate a new program unless I think it would be beneficial to me as well. She would never undertake to evaluate a new program since she knows it probably wouldn't work like a toaster. So, unless the programs you suggested are capable of this "one button" procedure, she's not going to use it. But thanks for replying Rick. I do appreciate it. -- Best Regards, Jack LaRosa :usflag: Central Alabama Using The Bat! ver: 5.2.
