Hi Gary, No problem. I was relieved when someone finally described to me what I was making happen, and I finally figured out why. So I understand completely the confusion you must have had.

Gary works in Kurzweil to prepare books, if I remember correctly, and the default display setting for that software is white on black, which results in pasting white text onto a white background when you copy and paste to other applications like Wordpad, and definitely Outlook. I did this for years without knowing I was and only just this year figured out that if I change the display setting in that program to black on white, other people not using just speech can read my pasted material without having to fiddle with it. Glad you figured out how to read it, Jamie!

I think it was white font. -- Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading: The Magicians by Lev Grossman See everything I've read this year at: www.michiganrxtech.com/books.html
