Boy, I'm confused about all of this.  What I've been doing is going to 
the muni online schedules, saving them as htm files, opening them in 
Word; doing multiple search and replaces to delete the multiple spaces 
between the columns and replace them with tabs; then converting the whole 
deal to a table; then converting the table to an Excel doc; then 
importing the doc into Docs to Go from Dataviz. I haven't found any other 
way to display a doc on my Palm that's wider than the screen (i.e., a doc 
where I can scroll horizontally).  If anyone has another idea/method 
PLEASE let me know.  What I'm doing not only is a pain, but seems a bit 
insane.
