ABACUS GLOBAL SUPPORT, INC.
HELPFULL HINTS ON 1-2-3
FOR PCs AND MACs

There is a quick way to adjust column widths with 1-2-3 ver. 2.3 and 1-2-3 for Windows. Place the mouse
pointer on the right boarder of the colume title. The cursur will change to a double headed arrow pointing
left and right, this indicates that you can change the width of the cell by dragging the pointer either left or
right. Once the column is set to your width just let the mouse botton go.

To center a heading using 1-2-3 ver. 1.3 or 2.3's WYSIWYG that occupies several columns just load
WYSIWYG from the add-in options (ALT F10). From the WYSIWYG menu, select Text, Align, and
Center or what ever format you perfer. Highlight the range of the heading and press Enter. To align the
heading with the column it corresponds to, choose Text and Clear, highlight the range of cells with the
headings, then press Enter. For 1-2-3 for Windows, select the cells that you want centered then click the
Center SmartIcon.

To set your 1-2-3 to go into a directory your in by typing the program name provided that 1-2-3 is in your
PATH statement. Open 1-2-3 then select Worksheet, Global, Default, Directory. Delete the current
directory then press Enter and then select Update. This will allow you to start up 1-2-3 from any directory
you in and work with the worksheets saved in that directory.

To move around a large spreadsheet quickly and efficiently you can use the F5 (GOTO) key for the range
prompt or F3 (NAME) for a short list of range names. By pressing F3 twice, you can see a full screen
listing of range names.

I just talked to this idiots over the phone... 
And their explanation is that because it is 
comp.mail.misc <- they feel that misc can carry every trash. 

Lady who was talking with me said that their research department
(I bet some kind of bozoo with overinflated ego) said it....

Well, if their support comes from their bozoo in research dept,
stay away from ABACUS!


( And call them at their 800 number - let them pay for such stuff ).

Hmm.... here we go again.  I just called these guys and an idiot named
"Antonio Dios" thinks he's doing us all a favor with. His reasoning is
that .misc in the newsgroup name implies anything goes.

Now if this doesn't call for mail bombs, I don't know what does.
Where is the postmaster@gwinnet.com who was here a few days ago
defending Abacus's last mailings as "an indiscretion".

Gauls!  We have nothing to fear; except perhaps that the sky may fall
on our heads tomorrow.  But as we all know, tomorrow never comes!!
