So you lost me when you referred to Notebook.
If I read correctly I need to download Notebook before doing anything else.
True or not true?
Live and learn?

No, it should already be on your computer.

Start/Programs/Accessories/Notepad (if I remember correctly as I now use a Mac computer)

One other way to do it, Cheers, as someone else suggested is to use the Paste Special command when pasting it into Word.

Edit/Paste Special/Unformatted Text

That gets rid of all the extraneous html code in the background which grossly adds to the size.

I develop web sites so I have learned to stay right away from MS Word unless I am writing a letter. That's why I mentioned Notepad. (MS Word is like a swear word for developers because it adds its very own code bloat to HTML code).

I am so relieved, and excited....I cant wait to get away from here now, and what ever the cat scan reveils on the 10th, I know I will be taken care of over there if it becomes necessary.

Idy, I am sure, though, that it is a "panic" of eager anticipation and excitement rather than fear

Do you have family and somewhere to live over there?

Everyone - I need to ask for your positive thoughts and prayers.

I got a phone call mid-morning today to go for a "second" interview for a job (here in the U.S.). I went for that interview this afternoon. I need this job SO badly so I can begin saving and planning my move back home. It's two years off but the planning starts now.

I pray that I get the job and that I at least enjoy it while I am here
