Thanks, folks for the comments. Was hoping an alternative might be to do split-screen with two separate programs at the same time. Recall some 20+ years ago seeing a demonstration of split screen usage. Not at that time knowing how to turn a computer on, it looked great but had no clue as to how to run it. I just recently discovered how to produce an e-mail using only 1/2 screen superimposed over, say, Legacy and that works great. Am running Win xp home & 312 ram with Pentium 111. Any thoughts here save forking over bunches of cash? Thanks again, Bill Houdek
