Dear OO Community, 

My question regarded " Fit To Frame " in Draw and that
my Text Icon on the Tool Toolbar generates no Floating
Menu.

My inbox is jammed with responses regarding slow
start-up.   Come to think of it, mine is slow, but I
had assumed that an old P4 CPU funneling multiple
users and their open programs through 256 K memory
using XP Home probably would run sluggishly.

Thank you OO Community for your abundant and
thoughtful replies !
