It took me a couple of weeks as I like being stuck in a rut and 98 suited me fine:-). But I wouldn't go back to it now.

Also if you have questions, there is no dumb question, it is only dumb if you do not ask... someone is always willing to help .. I personally print the discussion that I think I will use now or in the future ... But your hands are not smacked if you ask a question that has been answered before and being new, everyone will help you gladly ... Gerri Mason OhiO
