No I didn't. I stupidly assumed the default behavior would be reasonable. Every version of M$ Office I can remember has autosaved by default. I mean, the "help agent" and auto spell check are enabled by default for christ's sake. This certainly implies that the other defaults are similar to a default M$ office install. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_astonishment Lee -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
