Jim (and anyone else that cares to know)... The document in question also arrived on my Mac recently from the list. It is initially a bin hex file which needs to be decoded first before you can open it. You can use something like Stuffit Expander or Compact Pro to decode it. It then appears to be a Word Processed file in WordPerfect for the PC. Your MS Word or Claris Works should translate it from there. Hope that helps, sorry to everyone who didn't really want to know that! Tim.
