Beth,

The techwr-L archives are a motherlode (and sometimes a battlefield)
of intellectually invigorating topics for your column!  :-)  If you
can dig up the introductory information you got when you subscribed,
you'll see references to commands that let you order up the archive
files month by month, or surf through them all like a database.

If you don't still have the information package, fire off a message
to listserv -at- vm1 -dot- ucc -dot- okstate -dot- edu with these two commands in the body
portion:

INFO REFCARD
INFO DATABASE


Happy mail-surfing!

Say, would you consider posting your columns in techwr-L too?
("Mrs. Thistlebottom" - what a great nom de plume!)



Cheers,

Ken d'Albenas
