And furthermore, they just pulled Trio, which sucks of the version which is mighty. Directv is the devil.

However, I just found a correspondance address for their programming veep, so I will pen an eloquent diatribe which I'm sure will make them see reason, and reach beyond the political and distribution issues that are coming between me and my Brilliant But Canceled.

Edited again to add: Oh, the irony!

OK - I made the changes . I deleted the dll from my adobe browser subdirectory. (actually renamed it in case I needed.) Could not find a winprefs .js in my mozilla, but found one in open office.org, and commented out the appropriate lines there as well. Thanks, and will let you know how that went.

Ok, my new computer has WordPerfect, not Word. What's the difference?

I'm used to Word, have never used WP and it scares me.

Well, for my purposes not much--it has an irritating habit of trying to turn things I paste into it into numbered lists, and it took a while for me to track down the word count feature. I don't do anything complex with it, though. (You do have to remember to save in an appropriate format if you're going to want to read a file with Word on another computer, obviously.)

WordPerfect was/is the nemisis of Word.

Imagine Mac vs PC only argued on a multiplatform level.

There is still fallout.

Here's one history: [link]

I have that same problem, Kristen. I haven't worked with it a lot yet. I have Windows XP on this machine, and I couldn't cough up the extra $250 for the Office Suite so I had to go with WP. It's still weird to me.

WordPerfect is my bitch. I run version 7, which is, I believe, pretty old. What version of WP do you have? You might find that a lot of the shortcuts and commands are the same as Office.

I work with both WP and Word, most of the basic features are similar, but the nifty little shortcuts for things are way different. I always get frustrated switching back and forth, because they are simiar enough that I'll be trying to do something in Word the way it works in WP, and it will take me a while to figure out why it's not working.

The thing that makes me the craziest with work is that when you hit the print icon, it prints one copy of the document to your default settings, where in WP, the print icon brings up an print options menu.

I've gotten into the hapit of using Ctrl-P to print from MS Office - that way I get the print dialog box instead. Does WP work the same way?

Completely unrelated - how do you get the 'home' and 'end' keys to do anything on a Mac? (Yes, I'm using a Mac keyboard.)
