Regards, WHH Bill, yours are ok........ Now today the Sampers and Peter Kidd sent mail to the list using MS Outlook 8.5. They prolly read each other ok but those of us using third party e-mail packages like Eudora and Pegasus etc. couldn't read this at all and in some cases can't even download it. They need to go to the OPTIONS tab and be sure to clear the Send RTF Text check box, I believe........... (Rich Text Formatting) Most of us don't have or generate problems but when ya get a new package (Windows 98 & Outlook for example) the learning curve just might be near vertical....... Where these new packages shine is on an Office Network where there is a system administrator setting things up and everyone has the same software with the same configuration. all the best...............Murray [log in to unmask]
