 JP> Hello  Nancy, nice chatting with you. !
 JP> Specially when I need help !
 JP> I am on Vista here since 3 months and yesterday, somehow, it
 JP> would not run BW again. Hey, I need to run BW !

Hmmm...  Perhaps you forget that I not only do not run Vista, I'm not
running ANY version of Windows?  My BW is strictly in DOS, so it never
gives me Windows-type problems...  :)

 JP> I redid the whole system and I am back up and running. I got a
 JP> full size screen for reading the mail, when I got to reply, it
 JP> shrinks to 1/2 of the screen, the width remains the same only the
 JP> vertical is shrunk. I looked into the little black CL icon on the
 JP> top line where I can jimmy the raster and such, the characters per
 JP> line and vertically too. I have all set to 80 x 50 but when I open
 JP> the reply it defaults to 80 x 25. Where can I change the default ?
 JP> It took me quite a few minutes to find this window where this
 JP> can be done, it is not used every day !

I'm not able to help... and I just checked with my Wizard, this is out
of his area of expertise as well... so I hope someone else has the
answer... maybe already has given you some help...

The Wizard says that it's possible that you need to get an updated video
driver... he's heard/read that some of the Vista updates assume updated
drivers, but they don't come automatically as part of updates so you
have to do them manually.  He doesn't use Vista, so that's about the
extent of any help he can give here.

 JP> Gorgeous spring here now, there are millions of birds of all
 JP> colours in our small garden. Lilacs are in full bloom too.

Yeah, here too.  :)  Still staying on the cooler side, and more rainy
than hoped for, but also still having a reasonable amount of sun.  My
peonies are up and the buds should be popping open in the next few weeks
into lovely red, pink and white flowers... we have them lining the
driveway...  :)
