From another member of this mailing list: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kari, If you do a "save as" and select the Microsoft Word .doc format and then send that, the person receiving will be able to open it. Shane ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To do this, select "MS Word 97/2000/XP (.doc)" as the File type in the "Save As" window.
