I am running a laptop with a mono LCD monitor.  It has a VGA board and
a port on the back to connect an external VGA monitor.

When I install 1-2-3 ver 2.3, for WYSIWYG, it apparently assumes it 
is in color so I have to reset the density of the screen to view and
still isn't as crisp as I wish.

Anyone know of a way to force or override the color in WYSIWYG to use
mono in a VGA boarded portable? I can't find a ref in the manual to use
a set up override, such as "123/M" or something like that.  Any suggestions
will be appreciated.

... Nothing exceeds like excess
