       Hello James,

             Thank you for your prompt response.  I am a new user of Open Office and there is a lot I have to learn.  I had assumed the update function (in Writer) was a constant for security patches and the like. 

             Your reply was certainly a help.

                                                                         Best,
                                      & nbsp;                                                 David Rittenberg
