Greetings,
As to whatever conceptual issues I am presumed to have or not have: I am a
self-taught computer user without third-party funding who pressed on to read
books and learn computing in a library so as to have a computer to practice
on. I asked these questions because my downloaded version of 331.35
arrived minus any Help files and I do not have the luxury of these classes
that some have for learning perfect computing. I know that others also are
asking similarquestion as can be seen on other lists--perhaps not as erudite
as this one. What we need is a summarized contextual discussion of some of
these steps. thus whether my question displayed my relative (and former)
lesser knowledge on this subject, it is the fact that one dares to ask and
dares to learn that counts. Have a great day.
