FYI ,,,,,, If everyone uses Cut/Copy & Paste in their e-mails as much as I do, about 98% of the time, you may or may not know that :::::::: 1. If you select the recipients name FIRST and then create the e-mail message, you CANNOT exit the e-mail message for the purpose of copying text from various documents or other e-mails for insertion into your new message.(you can Insert an entire text document, but that's all). 2. If you create the new mail FIRST (by clicking on "New Mail"), then select the recipient, you CAN exit ( by clicking out side the message window ) the new mail as many times as needed. BTY ::: The saga of the invisible Address Book is still in progress, we have resorted to the land-line to conserve our keyboards. <g> When a solution is found, it will be posted. Bob Hays
