Tim, I guess I don't know what I am looking for. When I opened the file it seemed to be in a toolbar. What am I looking for to interact so I can try to read. I have not read a document on the Mac yet. I think, though, that it may have been a scanned document as I did not recognize anything like I have in mail for reading the email. Gosh, I am learning, but the more I learn is the more questions and confusion I have. I guess Windows was like that in the beginning, but my brain was a whole lot younger then! LOL; Chuckling!
