Subject: PCWorks: Re: pcworks-digest V2001 #1493 Subject: Re: PCWorks: Double spacing in posting All right, I follow what you are saying now, and copying from MSWord is out. I'm not doing it here and didn't in my last posting (Notepad+ etc). I do get the digest PCWorks and sometimes it seemed easier to just copy the thread and make whatever response in MSWord first. Or I would use Word just to initiate a question if I thought it would be a lenghty one. Now I'll know better. And using the Drafts for previewing" is an excellent idea. I do try to avoid that jumbled up thread that we see so often in responses; that's just another quirk of mine. Thank you again, Clint --- Harold > MSword??? Geeeze, what on Earth are you doing??
