the only computer program I ever learned was FORTRAN.... the current software drives my crazy because it is one giant Black Box that I can't figure out. There is a reason why there have been so many "such and such for Dummies" books out there.

Anyhow, the tip about Crl + or - was a big help, because the hubby had managed to reduce the reading field on his earthlink page & we couldn't figure out how to restore it to regular size. he can now read his email on his laptop... yay!
