First off, let me tell you I LOVE YOUR PRODUCT!!

When I use the thesaurus in 1997 it adds a ) to the front of the
replacement word.
Is this a feature or a bug?

The Thesaurus seems to work OK for me, but I tried it on a ".odt" file.
I have noticed that "Word Count" doesn't seem to work on a .doc file

Try saving the file as .odt, then close it and reopen it, and see if the
