I'm using VP 2.0 (without the professional extension) with a genius(full page) screen. It is realy good to FORMAT text (put them in boxes, including graphics (VP can resize a picture, and it does it well), using several text files ...). But it has not be made to TYPE text. There is nothing like search/replace. The way to process is to type the text on a 'traditional' word processor, for exemple MS Word, import it, and then format it. Hope it helps Regards Daniel Braun NOT be made
