No, that will save only the text, not the actual printer output, or input rather. I think Barry means to have a print file waiting on the disk so it can be printed later or taken to another machine. If I'm wrong, forget it. The only way to save a print file with Word 5.0 (or any other version for that matter) is to use a spool utility such as SuperLaserSpool and have background printing on "pause". -- ______________________________________________________________________________ $ smills@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu $ Oh, you're a HEDGE! $ $ MuffinHed@aol.com $ -Dudley Moore, "Arthur" $ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
