Thanks Gerald and Prat, Now if I validate something in Word I'll know I can change this setting and not be paranoid that it will mess up other things. I definitely agree that for most instances of F&R Word is superior. I haven't had one of those big linebreak messes to clean up lately though. <grin> Kellie To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
