I had tried that macro in the past although not with that in mind. I gave up on it because things would get out of whack if more than one program was sending to the port. The files produced by CMD are very large. I am go to print on my MSDOS machine at work which uses a different printer. What I ave in mind is basically an ASCI file which is tweaked with for indented paragraphs. It copies the ruler format from a special file and applies it to the current or selected paragraph(s). All this nice ruler formatting disaisappears if the file is saved as ascii and I would need to reb processor. So, stuff I need for work tends to be done using an MSDOS word processor on my bridgeboard. My MSDOS wordprocessor, Sprint, will formatted ascii file with some loss of precision in margins. This imprecision is preferable to losing all formatting. How soon can I send for the upgrade? Bob
