If companies have bugs in their code which you have already payed for, you should be getting free upgrades to fix those bugs or drop the companies software and flame them on the net. Though I continue to use MS Word, because I do not have the money to invest in another good piece of software, I hope that people will remain aware that Microsoft is notorious for these kind of bugs and will not continue to use their software. I continue to call MS and complain. Maybe they will get the hint. pr -- Pete Resnick (...so what is a mojo, and why would one be rising?)
