Yes you will be SOL of you need Access or Publisher, but it is rare to see a professional who would use either of these programs. The Mac has become very popular with software developers because it supports virtualization better than any other platform. So if you absolutely had to use Access or Publisher you could do this with a virtualization app like Parallels or VMWare Fusion. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
