But at the risk of angering Fred with an oft-discussed subject when he's
all rumbly anyway, wouldn't it just be quicker to write a business case
for FrameMaker? I'm only half in jest here, I spent over 3 hours today
troubleshooting some funky header/footer thing and I'm ready to blow my
brains out!
And just when I got *that* all settled, I moved a tab thing and somehow
changed over 30 bullet lines, and now I can't undo it! (*I* can, but
apparently *Word* can't.) WTF?!
