HI Jana,

Another question.  Does this mean that I'll have 2 copies of the file on my 
hard drive?  1 Kes file and 1 rtf file?

I reread your last message.  I understand now that you have to open the kes 
file.

Thanks so much!  I'm going to try it.  I'll save this info for future 
reference.  Maybe I'll be able to help someone else.

Your sharing friend,

Kathy
