Hi Volks: I thought that I had heard it all. Apparently Microsoft is leading some international consortium to set the standards for the re-ordering of the English alphabet! Apparently, computers can work much better, if the most commonly used letters are first in line - and the least commonly used ones are pushed farther back - it's got something to do with code efficiency and increasing the speed of the internet. I personally don't want them to do this - what do you think? Marshall Ruskin 84 Westy "Leader of the Pack" Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada "It's Friday" Member of "Vanagons Anonymous"
