Might be worth a try :-) A few weeks ago some guy scanned in two or three pages of something vaguely to do with genealogy (dunno what exactly), formatted it as a Word document and sent it to me. It's almost 3 bloody Meg, and I can't even read it. Can't (yet) make my Ami-PC parallel link work, and it's much too big to pass via floppy. Is there any way of viewing Word docs on the Mig? A DOpus filetype perhaps? DaveB
