I actually tried M$ Word and although it says it does line mumbering, it
wasn't quite clear. Surprise Surprise! :-) I downloaded the latest
Open Office and they have really done a job on it, imo of course! :-)
Looks good. Anyway, I found the line and the syntax was correct so I
don't know what the deal was. After about four or five coasters, I
finally got the cd where it would boot (Nero kept defaulting to floppy
emulation and I kept missing that) it then says it (XP) couldn't find
the driver. ARGH!!!
Well, I'm getting ready to boot back into W2K and try a couple of things
and see if I can work a few things out there.
Thanks!
