That is what I was doing , I was told formatting was erasing. By reading
the other mail here it appears that you don;t format to erase, you just
click on 'Erase'. It takes me 25--30 minutes to format, 5 minutes to
erase. I have wasted hours formatting instead of erasing. They say there is
no need to format a CD-RW . Thanks everyone for the info. I will learn one
day. There is one born in every village, looks like I am it :-)))

True, you -can- format a CD-Rw, and I do from time to time if I want
everything on it removed.
