There are hyphens dividing words at the ends of lines, but I didn't see any
garbled pages. It could be that there are missing pages, but my main
problem is that Word wants it to be plain text and I am afraid I won't have
the correct number of lines on each page. Since you are willing to look at
it, I will release it right away and see how it appears to you. Thanks
very much, Cindy! What woulld we do without your eyes? <smile>
