No, just a way to read two files that a friend sent to me. Nothing important. I'll just request him to save them in a different format if possible and resend them. I found a number of MDB coverters using Google, but none of them are free and I don't need to spend money on the conversion of just two files. So, I guess my question would still stand as to if OO will go full bore as a replacement for major M$ office type programs? -- Ed "Santa has the right idea: visit people just once a year, and you'll always be welcome." -Richard Lederer (1938- ) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
