At a workplace where I had to use Office 07, it cut my productivity in it by over a third, and created no end of issues. Managing formating was such a problem I ended up copy/pasting between two documents a lot to force the precise text formating I wanted. Also, ironically, I can't stand thunderbird and use pegasus mail. AndrewC _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
