Hi Tom and Chris,
I'm due to get office 2007 in a couple of weeks for experimentation here
at work, so then maybe I can help more.
anyway, while I don't know word 2007, I do have several e-books I could
send anyone who wants them.
just write me at home at:
acorange@xxxxxxxxxxx
and remind me that's what you need.
good luck,
Chip
