I tried SVN, didn't work. The Diffs were too messy even with a little change. Right now, I will send out the finished copy in PDF and ask the team to proof read it and give me the areas which needs changing. (but also in PDF is a problem cos there's no simple way for them to describe the location for the change.. eg: Pg 2, para 4, left side, change XXX to YYY). In the end, all the work comes back to me like a boomberang. :-) -- Ow Mun Heng Gentoo/Linux on DELL D600 1.4Ghz 1.5GB RAM 98% Microsoft(tm) Free!!
