I think what I'm going to do is work on the list, a little at a time, as I have 
time between proofing and appts and other stuff. I'll work in Word (rtf) and 
double-space between entries. Book title, author, scanner and if someone has 
said  they want to proof, proofer will be on one line.
Maybe after I get rid of duplications ll will be well and the html I attach to 
send to Pavi won't be too large.  It was sending both the being-scanned and 
wish list at the same time that caused the problem. If it turns out to be too 
large I'll change it to html and save as txt and sent it.Jamie and I tested it 
out, and I think hat ill work.

In the meantme, I'll continue to post updates as they occur.

Someone asked how to search the list. Just do a Find for the title or author of 
the book you're considering scanning and you'll be taken to it on the list and 
will also see, at the end of that line, who's scanning it (some people like to 
proof books scanned by particular people--you'll also if somone has asked to 
proofread it

HI Cindy,
 
    The more I think about the size of your list, I 
see how much space it would save not having blank lines between entries.  I 
respectfully withdraw my request for blank lines between entries.  They 
look nice, but they do take up space, and are not necessary if every 
title/author/scanner is on a line together and only one book per 
line.

    If I can set myself to try to  something new (not 
      saying I will--I may just stick to Word and skipping lines between 
entries 
      (at the age of 73, surely you can, Roger. I took a look at my document 
      with the htm symbols instead of words, lines and spaces and it's not 
      pretty. smile

        Well, if it comes to learning how to do something 
        then I suppose I do a better job of learning it by doing it myself, but 
        that doesn't mean that a better job is a good job. That's a hell of a 
        position to be in, knowing all kinds of things, but not being able to 
do 
        a damned thing.

I am just the opposite. Chem and bio 
        labs were great for me. Lecture was a nightmare. I have to do it to 
        learn it. I can't just listen and learn or read
and learn (probably 
        why I can't figure out how to replace the darned thing in Open 
        Office).
