Thanks, Doug. Oh yeah, always check those references. The business of moving things around on the menus, I figure it's just a test to see if we can keep our balance. Years ago, I wrote up a new Extended Education course on Microsoft Works for Windows, version 2 - which was what was installed on our campus computers and in my home office. The first run of the class happened in January after the Christmas and New Year break. I powered up the computers and was met with Works for Windows, version 3, which had been installed over the holidays. My screen captures were now all wrong, the menus did not match, even the task launcher screen was different! What a wonderful, exciting, adventure! So, I turned it into a teaching-learning opportunity. Ha! say I - what if you come in to work one day and a new version of your program has been installed - what do you do? We had a fine class - and I opined that teaching them how to look for things that were no longer where they used to be was one of the greatest gifts I could actually give them.
