Thanks. That's a possibility. She has OO, Wordpad, and MS Works on her
system. My client and I will have to have a talk. I haven't convinced
her that basic word processing skills are pretty much the same
regardless of the program.

2.4.x. Sorry, can't remember the value of x.

I guess that wasn't too clear :)

A keypress sequence (for example Ctrl+A) performs a specific function
when performed in MS Word. Could that same keypresss sequence executed
in AbiWord cause AW to crash? You wouldn't be doing the sequence in MS
Word.

Thank you for your suggstions. Thanks, all of you who replied.
