I have just reread the specification carefully. It certainly hangs together better for me than at the beginning. Here are some thoughts. There is a menu item for opening a list of recent documents. These documents should be on the menu, just below the exit choice, as they are ikn most word processors. The ability to open recent documents means that the users will want MDI. Fortunately, this is not hard to implement. We may need a third window for each document for print and embosser previews. What happens to the Daisy and Braille windows when a preview is chosen? Are they minimized? John -- John J. Boyer; President, Chief Software Developer Abilitiessoft, Inc. http://www.abilitiessoft.com Madison, Wisconsin USA Developing software for people with disabilities
