Thanks all for the recommendations, but it looks as if the new version is beyond my computer's capability. The 61 MB download would take hours on my dialup and, as unreliable as the connection is, it's unlikely I could ever get it to work. But even that is academic, as the 8.5 (and earlier 8.0) versions are not compatible with WinME operating systems. So, I guess I'll have to go to other sources. Thanks, anyway.
