If you have a "non standard" tab formatting code in your document, which you try to delete, WP dutifully asks you if you really want to delete the code. It displays the code at the bottom of the screen in the form: Delete [...mumble...]? N (Y) (or something like that) If "mumble" is large (i.e. larger than the width of the screen), the screen scrolls. Regardless of whether or not you delete the code, the screen is messed up. The obvious workaround is the refresh the screen (Screen/Redraw I think). 2. I found this one last night. I have a 1 page document. No special codes, full justification (by default). On the screen it looks fine, viewing it looks fine too. When I printed it (@ 10cpi Courier) on my NEC P6, some spaces were ommitted (such that phrases like "to whom" came out "towhom"). When I embedded a code for [Bold PS], the document printed fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark H.
