>sorts of clever things with html, rtf and the rest, but those "standards" >aren't set in stone, and it's very easy to find that something is missing, Here's a typical reason. I use Winword 8, a customer uses Winword 5. He wants to get a file off my laptop, so I save it as RTF for him. He can't read it - Microsoft (the definer of RTF, btw) changed the spec again. (Reason for all this is I ony have a 250M HD in my laptop, and I don't need to cram it full of MS crap).
