Hi, I have a word doc here which consists mainly of tables within tables, bullets and other formatting oddities. OO never writes the file out correctly. This is the only OO problem I've had with the other MS Office users though, so I cant say I'm disappointed with OO. James On Fri, 2003-01-10 a

Ekow, Partition Magic 8 will do Linux, as a matter of facter, i believe I used Partition Magic 6.x to resize Suse 7.x partitions and I read that PM 8.x will do reisersfs as well as ext3. You will need to fix grub and lilo if you resize IIRC. HTH, Keith Tommy McNeely <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote
