I trust this answer isn't 'off topic' but I don't think so, as Legacy does seem to be veering towards Windows default programs and it might be worth mentioning that not everyone LIKES Windows! I only discovered this icon was 'clickable' when my version of Word 97 finally died last summer and I bought Word 2007 - there seems no reason to me why it still can't say File somewhere. I am still finding Office 2007 far less easy than Word 97 was and have totally failed to manage mail merge with it at all.

I just hope this 'picture rather than word explanation' doesn't take over completely as it might end up like those (to me) totally incomprehensible picture stories which are now used universally instead of written instructions - whether you've bought a food processor or a lawnmower!

However, the new Charting program is just fantastic - I have previously used TreeDraw Legacy but this is so, so quick and already, looking at a standard top-down chart I see where I have gaps in information that I simply hadn't noticed before. Congratulations!

Select the Icon in the upper left hand corner to the left of the words HOME, there you will see what you want.

I expect most of us had not even realised that was a "functioning" icon. Unlike all the others, it doesn't have a pop-up to explain it's function. Perhaps this is something that the developers could think about adding.


Ahem! *ALL* top left icons in Windows have one or more functions, and have done for years :-)
