Thanks for the Wordup update, though you could have said that it was posted
somewere else.  I downloaded and unarchived the thing, installed and ran it.
But it bommed again, just as the open document window opened.  I was hoping
that the new revision would fix this, but Wordup doesn't  work with Revolver!
It would be so nice to be able to swap it in and have it running, but I guess
I have to uninstall Revolver, reboot and load it (taking 2-3 minutes to load off
my hard drive).  Even then the thing is very slow figuring out what font you
have selected in the font selector menu.  And although hyphenation is great
it isn't when the system crashes when you try to hyphenate a 6 or 7 page
report.  Could it have tripped over the graphic at the right margin?
  I felt the new manual was OK, EXCEPT for not telling you how much space
you have to clear on your hard drive for it to install (around 2 meg).  when
it takes 45 minutes to run the instalation program you would think they would
give you more of a hint than it comes on 5 SS disks.
  I guess I am just upset that WordUp isn't the Robust program that I wished it
was.  It can do some great things... if it doesn't crash on you.

PS:  can anyone remember what that program was that stops drive A from spinning
after bootup.  It was posted recently I think.  What causes this?
			Thanks for any input from anyone.            8-)
