Connie- Agreed...newer doesn't always mean better--but, for me at least, VISTA works much better than XP or any previous operating system. Most of the original bugs were worked out by the time SP1 was issued. By the way...did you know you can eliminate those question marks when using AOL webmail? Here's how to do it: In AOL's WEB MAIL on the mail page behind the words "AOL mail" in very small print is a link to "settings." Use the following steps: 1. Click on "settings" 2. Below the "Back to Mail" button there is a list that includes: General, Accounts, Compose, Spam Controls, Calendar, Instant Messenger 3. Click on "compose" 4. Remove the check mark for "Use Rich Text/HTML Editing 5. Click on the "tab" for "SAVE" 6. Click on "Back to Mail" In a message dated 1/16/2009 2:40:38 P.M.

Joan, Yes, to the question marks.? You told me of this before.? It eliminates other options I like that are included.? I find this only happens with the list letters.? Does not effect it at all when writing off list to my friends.? Go figure.?
