wily,

Thanks for that. I stand corrected (I guess). Not clear what the folders issue is about but if 98 is working well for you, that's great.

Let me clarify I have nothing against Bill Gates. I admire his ingenuity and business acumen very much. As a person who dabbled in programming a long long time ago, I had problems with various versions of Microsoft Word I used to use years ago. It struck me that the code was buggy and I was baffled why they would put it out that way. I was a devoted Mac user for ten + years until I decided I wanted to use Realtick and had to face getting a Wintel machine (stomach still churns at the thought! <<ggg>>>).

I am pulling for a Linux system to come along that will allow people like you and me to tweak our OS code and do some really cool stuff. I think it will happen, too.

Thanks again for all your help--going back a year!!!

Rick
