Thank you!!! Thank you!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
I am self taught on the computer and have been working on learning to set up tables forr the past week and a half!! I knew I was making it harder than it needed to be and as I read thru Billie's 3 threads it all finally clicked!!
What a wonderful tutorial, Billie and Meg33, bless your heart for thinking to post those links!
I am so glad I did! I could not begin to do what you do with graphics!
Majjie! I need to go look at your profile page now - I see that little light bulb went off and you're posting graphics now! Good for you!

I empathize, having used three different word programs on the computer at work before I retired, but knew nothing about HTML when I waded into Internet waters.
Finding FR in 1997 and registering in April 1998 (# 4,000-something), it was so slow then a reply you made stayed on the first Forum page most of the day!
There was not "Preview," though, and invariably one badly "messed up."
I, too, of necessity in order to participate, "figured out" how the heck to do things.
You weren't here 3 years ago this month when my right arm was badly broken in an auto accident - top bone popped out of the elbow socket, and the under ulna bone split into two sword pieces; bridged with a titanium rod late that night.

A True FR Addict, I was sent home the next morning and promptly hit the keyboard to report in to The Finest...with a cast on the right arm, unable for 5 whole months to use the arm or even to get it anywhere NEAR my body, I "taught" my poor left hand how to both use the mouse AND type every word, hunt & peck style..:))
Determination rules!
With your clever graphics you will have magnificent tables. billie's threads are full of helpful info. I still go thru them on occasion & pick up new things that at the time I "couldn't handle" - overload more or less. good luck!
