--Hi Civileme,
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Infact I d like to thank
John, Ax, Jeanette and everyone else who tried to help. As I ve
said before, this list is great! However, I broke down and went
to Micro-Center and got Corel WP8. It installed in a matter of
seconds and works flawlessly. While I was there, spending my hard
earned cake on 1's & 0's I saw Applix. So I decided to give that
a go as well. Not quite as easy an install, but it went in and
seems to work OK, albeit a bit less Word-like than Corel.
You have to understand that I ve been struggling with Star Office
since my early Linux days. The first version I ever had was 4.0,
and I ve NEVER had anything but the worst of luck with it. I ve
even seen it crash my system while trying to install. I did
manage to get 5.0 for Win95 to work, but didn t see much point to
a shell on top of a shell, so I ended up uninstalling it. (Try
and get _that_ mess out of your windows registry!)
Oh well, thanks again, and we can all get back to things like
Kcharset: wrong charset and How do I get a parallel port zip+
100 autodect to work? .
