It took me quite some time (like several months) to get it into my head... someitmes I would remember, other times not. Mostly I just use writer so it's not often a problem. I seem to find my way around OK, but I tihnk you have a point that the Help might need interface might need some work. Mind you, it is a B-I-G improvement over the days of about 1.0 when much of the Help was just imported pretty well direct from Star Office or was just plain not there! I'm sure that the doc. people would wlecome your input and help. -- God bless you, Keith Bates 4 Mooloobar St Narrabri NSW 2390 Phone: 02 67924890 Fax: 02 67925418 www.new-life.org.au If you don't have a reason to live JESUS IS THE ANSWER!
