Thank you for your explaination! I guess I will go get pagemaker! It is funny that up until about two years ago I never used Word even though I had it. All of my word proccesing needs were simple and straight forward. Thus I never needed the bloated features of Word. The only reason I switched to word was because I needed the macro making abilities of Word to force a square peg into a round hole so to speak. I used Word to create macros that took text copies of newspaper ads and transformed them into delimited text files so that I could import them into my database.
