This group is here to help folks like you and me Pam. Over the year or so I've been a member, I've had a lot of hand-holding. Once in a while I get to contribute too which is just paying back. I've done a few things like this using Excel & Word so will be glad to help or even take it offline if we need to. I've also made small catalogs & directories using Publisher and even Access. Good luck. /g -----Original Message----- From: Pam [mailto:ltf01@xxxxxxxxxx] Hi all, I've been away all day, and have come back to find lots of interesting tidbits. I'm going to combine all of them here so I don't send out umpteen emails back to the group. Glenda, I will check out your suggestion, however, if I go that way it will likely mean LOTS of questions to the group. My Excel knowledge dates back to the version shipped with Works 3.0, many many moons ago, and I've already admitted my shameful lack of experience with Word. I almost enrolled in some of the eclectic academy classes last month but was afraid I wouldn't have the time right now to devote to studying. _____ =20 << ella for Spam Control >> has removed 2006 Spam messages and set aside 0 Newsletters for me You can use it too - and it's FREE! www.ellaforspam.com=09 ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
