I actually wish we had a typewriter that works. Marsha Redd Librarian, Kelloggsville High School Grand Rapids, MI marsharedd@hotmail.com Education is not a goal; it is a life-long process.

A quick check of the archives will turn up lots of requests to print spine labels on a partially-used sheet. Often the poster wants to print only two or three labels, and the "stupid" computer wants to start at the beginning. I've never had that problem, because I use a TYPEWRITER! Just because something is new technology doesn't make it better technology. -- David Lininger, kb0zke, MS/HS librarian Hickory County R-1 Schools Urbana, MO 65767 417-993-4226 tss003 at tnp dot more dot net -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
