Lee, Thanks a lot for the information on LPD Writer. Your instructions worked perfectly. I don't know whether you work for Digital Solutions or not, but I must compliment them (or you) for a nice piece of work. Now that this new type of copy protection is being adopted, I think the sales will improve. There seems to be lots of bad feelings for productivity software that is protected. I am not familiar with WordPerfect, but LPD has all the power I need in a word processor, and is much less costly. I think many other Amiga users have similar needs. The reference guide type of protection is a great idea. I am very glad DS has decided to use it. Software piracy, in my opinion, only serves to depress the incentive for development of new, useful software…. but programs that people need to use for serious applications must be easy to use AND back up. Thanks again, Paul Gangwisch
