Absolutely Fabulous! ;-)))

And all this at 3am!

Here's what your message header shows:

Of course, it's quarter to midnight here for me so what the hell am I
doing up as well, eh?!

Well, congratulations, Angela! Wonderful news indeed. Mark this day on
your calendar -- TBF: Trial by Fire ;-)) Or perhaps more
appropriately, Trial by Font ;-)))


Oh, a comment I should have made to Robin's posting, which said, in
part:

The current Y&YTeX manuals say to drag-and-drop (p.5 of the smaller
manual) -- but the above sounds to me like a better description, so we
should keep the Control Panel instructions (I saw Mimi had posted
these as well) in mind when 2000/XP are at issue -- which is pretty
much all the time these days.

Wow ... what a lot of info Angela's shaken out of the trees ;-))
