   I know what you mean (about writing things down).  :*)  I will have
   to check out the page size angle.

   Yeah, that makes sense.
   My current "fix" is to redo into a MSWorks database.  I don't like it
   as much, either, but it does provide a sat solution for this one
   project.  BTW, as I have entered my data, I realize that I had quite
   a few more files than 200.  I'm over 700, with a ways to go.  (See, I
   didn't have it written down).  Won't I be chagrined if this database
   proves to be unstable?  Ooooh, I hope not.
