Ken,

It is with a very red face that I say THANK YOU! I have a bad habit of
scribbling notes on little pieces of paper and leaving them all over my
office. Every so often, I consolidate all of the valuable info on a
cheat sheet, and therein lies the problem--a simple typo. Of course there
is no such thing as .sun, but I've sent at least 4 messages to that
address (and wondered why they never replied). I get so much feed back
from the comp.text.frame newsgroup, that it didn't bother me enough to
investigate.

Well, we deleted almost all boxes in favor of a more open/white-space approach.
We still use square boxes around screen shots that include multiple windows,
but that's about it. If we have huge chunks of courier display info (like a
script), then we set it off with a box with rounded corners (looks more like
an actual screen).

Precisely! We learn by interacting. We don't learn by cloistering ourselves
in cubicles.

What kind of a smiley is this? 4-eyes? Does that represent glasses?
