Make sure that you rename book.lrn before you import it, something like learn.txt, and import _that_, if you try to import it as book.lrn, it will end up copying itself to the end of it's own self, and it'll just keep doing that over and over, and you'll have a mess. So do remember to rename it, then import it. I have not done this for a long time, so make sure you read the instructions in the doc file first. It's not a very strentuous thing to do for the most part. Pete
