[QUOTE="bugjah, post: 367671, member: 17557"] Thanks, I will try this tonight and report back. In the meantime, though, I am not too hopeful, given the fact that after this recent re-install, I had this problem before doing too much copying of files into my new user world...except for M$, unfortunately. What do you think about resetting permissions? I was given a terminal line code to try by a genius bar guy (who admitted he knew little about fonts), something like FSCK -YW I tried that, but it was the wrong code, I guess, cuz I got an error message. Looks like I can possibly test this same idea with MainMenu...? I love Open Office! Problem is things like track changes features, etc. Last I checked, Open Office was not compatible with this feature, so I am forced to install Word to be able to pass documents back and forth easily to others who don't use Open Office. Also, conferences I go to are, by and large, Power Point monopolies, so I am forced to use that crappy program as well... M$ 2004 is horrible horrible horrible! I have lost more documents on total program freeze meltdowns than I can count on all extremities... Don't get me started... [/QUOTE]
