With the exception of the one line limit, I agree with you here. What's wrong with having a two or three line plan? I have seen teachers use it to list phone numbers/prefered accounts for e-mail, etc. I have even seen some people use it to indicate if they are actually logged in or not. However, there should be some protection against unprintable stuff in the plan/project files. Warner -- Warner Losh imp@Solbourne.COM Free to a good home: 10,000 Miller Moths.
