Caroline,

If you're interested in preserving all the formatting, you may want to have Launch send the file to DBTW as a Word document. I've sometimes had trouble with formatting in documents that were saved as .txt files.

Hi. Here's what I did to add Duxbury to the Launch menu in k1000 V8.01.

1.  Go to the file menu of k1000 and select the launch sub menu.
2.  Press enter on add.
3.  In the program name edit box type Duxbury, or whatever you want it to
show up as in the menu..
4.  Tab until you get to the Browse button and press the spacebar.
5.  Locate the dbtw.exe file, usually located in c:\Duxbury.  Select okay.
You will be placed back on the launch menu name edit box.
6.  Confirm that the program has been added properly by tabbing once.  You
should have the full path to the Duxbury program.
7.  Make changes to the other options as desired by pressing the spacebar to
toggle between yes and no for the options.  The settings I chose are:
Command line arguments was left blank, a document name will be passed to
DBT, K1000 will be minimized when the new program is launched, and the open
file will be passed with formatting as a .txt file.
8.  Before pressing Okay, press spacebar on the search button.  This will
physically search to make sure that the path name specified exists.
9.  Press enter on the okay button.

Now when you go to the launch menu, you should have Duxbury listed as an
option.  Good luck.

Caroline
