Thats a lot for the reply, I'll bring it down today. I have used Scribus for 
several projects for my Lions club and also for my Christmas and Birthday 
cards. Its great not having to depend on MS Publisher anymore. Now if I could 
find a good tax program I'd completely delete MS XP from my system.

Thanks again for your help.
