You know, it's hard to completely separate them. I find that I have to retype things a lot, often the word I'm aiming for isn't in the suggestions list. Which of course, makes the whole thing slower. And when I go back and read the text, there often seem to be a lot of junk characters mixed in. It may well be just that I need to put some time into getting used to it, but unfortunately, time is one thing I don't have a lot of right now, what with a recent move and a new job. I do appreciate the list comments, though, since you all seem to be getting good results, that speaks to the fact that it must be possible. :) Take care, Donna On Aug 19, 2012, at 3:52 PM, Taylor Scott <taylor9...@gmail.com> wrote:
