Terry Farrell
: Thanks Suzanne. You have always been so helpful. Could you also educate
me
: on using the help function within Word (Office 2003)? Whenever, I type in
a

: results, which initially seems encouraging. Howver, very few of these
: articles have anything to do with my topic. I suspect I must be using the
: help feature wrongly. Could you give some tips?

: Thanks again,
