I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Great, Deena, I'll forward you an email.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm having trouble with Firefox since I downloaded the most recent version. First of all I lost all my bookmarks. I followed the helpful guidelines to reload them from the backup...but then they disappeared the next time I opened it.

You might try checking which profile is being used.

Close Firefox, then click Start-->Run and enter firefox.exe -profilemanager

It could be that the profile that is launched by default is in a different folder than the one you've been restoring the booksmarks file to.

ION, the update to ver. 1.5.0.7 was just released today.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

So, I've decided to attempt another escape from the evil empire (tm) and so far it's going pretty good. So far Ubuntu 6.06 hasn't given me the problems that I experienced with 5.10. I am preferring Gnome over KDE though in the past with other linux distros it's been the other way around. I've managed to get Ktorrent working without a problem. Likewise with VLC and Opera. I've got Wine installed but haven't had much luck with it so far--it installed a couple of games fine but then wouldn't load the damn things. I signed up with Cedega for 3 months but have only had limited success with that so far--only tried some smaller games, and since it's designed for top-end games we'll see how it goes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have a new iPod, la la la la la LA LA LA LA LA LA LA.

Anyone know stuff about mail merge in Word?

Do you need to "open the data source" every time you open the merge document in Word? (For what I'm working on, the data source will always be the same.)

Yay!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

In my experience, you do IF the datasource has changed any and you want to include the new items. If anyone knows an easier way, I would love it!

I suppose you could do it with VBA, assuming there's a method for that.

Maybe I'll look that up later.
