David, You can display text at level 13 by going into the Display menu, selecting, Preferences, and clicking on the "text" button. I've also found that the system keeps saying it has no data at magnifications 2,4,6,8,10, etc. You cn fix this by clicking on the "Auto" button in the "Mag" box. Then just click the magnification that you want to use. Here are some other goodies: When printing maps at mag 13, I get HUGE text for the street names. Hopefully there is a way to get around. You can add just about anything to a map. Click on the jagged line in the Toolbox. Then draw a line with it. Now click on the arrow in the tool box and click on the line. This selects the line. Now go into the Edit menu and click "Show feature codes". If you now scroll through the list of feature codes and click on one of them, the line turns into the style of the feature. For Features that aren't lines (like lakes). Use the polygon tool from the toolbox. Dave
