Bon Mot about Word 4.0 Bug
     Microsoft has just released Word version 4.0a to address problems 
with Word's management of imported PICT files; a bug occasionally corrupts 
PICT objects copied from Word back into their creating applications.  The 
problem affects SuperPaint files (SuperPaint is bundled with Word); 
expressions created with Prescience Corporation's mathematical typography 
package, Expressionist; and possibly other applications.  Version 4.0a 
also fixes a bug in Word's Calculate command.  The upgrade is free to 
registered owners who require it.  Contact Microsoft support at 
206/454-2030.
