I am unlcear about the macro & functionality that Jonathan refers to. However, I do have both OOo 1.1 and MSO97 and can test/check both if he can clarify. MSO97 is currently operational on a Win2K virtual machine & it would only take me about and hour to install OOo 1.1 from the original CD on the same VM. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
