Hello Angus... I bought over the years, Dos for Dummies, Windows for Dummies, and recently Creating Web Pages for Dummies and all have been extremely3~ helpful because they give infgformation and answer questions that newbies have and cant seem to find in normal docs. Why Because most documentation always assumes that the reader knows a lot more on a subject than theyt do... sorry about the typos... my back space isnt working *(maybe a blinged up config here somewhere). Anyway the Dummies books fill a void and help a true newbie get info wiothout aoppearing to be a complete rube before evereyone. DARN I have to finsd out how to get destructive backspace working.[3~ --- þ Synchronet þ w8nsi-rogueriver.tzo.com .
