Hello again everyone- It's the guy that had (and still has) the DSL/browsing compatibility problem. It is better though. MS tech support found some corrupted files. user.exe for example. When I just uninstalled my OS and reinstalled it, things now work better. Not great, but better. Anyway- now another question. I wanted to email a web page to someone. When I do a save as, my only 2 choices for file types are "txt" or "html". I saved as a html, and then attached to an email. Everything came out except the graphs. I have noticed the ones that other people send to me are usually GIF's. That isn't an option when I choose save. Is it because I don't have any kind of a program on my machine that uses GIF's ? TIA, Jeff
