  I am using ventura 1.1 and I would like if someone can help answer
  these two questions:

  1- If I insert two documents within the same chapter, VP starts
  numbering the tag names I have specified from 1 again when it flows
  the second document into the successive frames.  Should I have two
  chapters and paste the Chapter# into the auto-numbering?  I really
  do not have chapters I am writing a paper but the original document
  in MS-Word format grew to 50K so I thought I would split it in half
  to reduce VP from hanging once in a while?

  2- How should I go about including screen dumps into VP? I have
  tried to include some dBase code into VP but it mistakes the lines
  @ ROW(), COL()  SAY 'BLA BLA BLA...' as being taged because of the @
  sign.  This is after I have loaded the dbase code text file into
  word and saved it so VP treats line as paragraphs.  If I loaded it
  as straight ascii files it expects to see a blank line in order to
  cause a paragraph break.  Any suggestions?  What if the text files
  have graphic characters (ascii > 128) does any of the VP fonts
  supports these graphic characters?

  Thank you for your help.
