I have a really dumb question: I have an iChat account. Can I use iChat to talk to someone on AIM? If so, is there something in the iChat menu that can help me do this?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Any Filemaker Pro users about?

I have a calculated field which produces a number. I have the layout formatted so that the field is showing as a dollar amount with a dollar sign and 2 zeros. I now need to use this figure in another field (which I will send as an email. Within the field, I cannot get the formatting to have a dollar sign or zeros. If the amount ends in 50 cents, it shows as .5, not .50. Does anyone have any ideas?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Can I use iChat to talk to someone on AIM?

Yes. At least, that's how DH and I chat during the day. (Him on iChat, me on AIM Express.) I think all you need to do is get an AIM screenname to log on with.

Thanks, and cool! Do I go to AOL to get a screenname?

I got mine so long ago I don't remember, but yeah, I'm sure there's a link on aol.com.

If you have a .mac account, then you don't need an AOL screenname also.

So, my missweber AT mac DOT com means that "missweber" would work as my AIM screen name?

Sorry to be such a doof, but I get quite confuzzled when it comes to cross-platform stuff.
