Hi Steve,

This is why we (Techno-Vision Systems Ltd) wrote "Word - Top
Ten Tips" which you will find in DBT's Help, under "Working
with Word".

We also have this on our web page, and it has proved to be a
very popular document generally speaking.

(Hope you enjoyed your sleep)

George.

George,

You're absolutely right, and I'm mindful of that whenever I
create or edit a 
Word document.  Unfortunately, that's a tough one to sell to
people who (a) 
don't understand the difference between a line break and a
paragraph, and 
(b) insist on whacking the Enter key every time they want to
go to a new 
line.  It can be a losing battle to get people to do things
the right way 
when it's so easy to do them the wrong way.  Same goes for
indenting the 
first line of a paragraph.  It's much easier to do so by
pressing the Tab 
key than to go to the Format menu, select Paragraph, tab to
the combo box 
for indents, downarrow to "Indent first line", tab to the
edit box for how 
much to indent, and finally press Enter.  And yes, I know I
could make a 
hotkey that does all that, but I'm too tired after
describing the process, 
so I think I'll just quit and go to sleep even if it is only
5:30 in the 
afternoon <sleepy grin>.

Steve
