Covert covert@cactus.org > CACTUS ..!cs.utexas.edu!cactus.org!covert You might take a look at CalendarMaker - it would only make the 8.5"x11" landscape calendar. Another program which might be better for your needs is Calendar Creator - I haven't used this but, from what I've seen and heard, it allows you to print a traditional calendar plus many other forms such as daily and weekly formats. Calendar Maker is by CE Software and Calendar Creator is by Power Up. Both are available through Educational Resources. Call them at 800-624-2926 for info/catalog. Hope this is helpful, ***Kaye***
