    Libre Office is probably slightly closer. They are both pretty close.

    I'm game. I do a lot of technical writing at work if you think that would help.

    Guys-- this has been a great help so far. I had received copies back from Backwoods Savage and raybonz and their notes have actually inspired two additional sections that I am working on now. Also, Dennis added a lot of extra details that have now been incorporated.

    Just a reminder-- when making changes, try to make them in bold, italics, or better yet RED so they can be seen easily.

    I think I installed it correctly, Libre shortcut shows and opens but I cannot get your doc to open with it.

    I cannot get it onto my computer (to open it from the program). When I click download a message comes up that I can try, buy, or upgrade ms word. New computer.

    Ah, your browser is trying to open it instead of download it. Have you tried right clicking the link and choosing "Save as"?

    That looks like Pine you're carrying. I'm so happy.

    No me, that's a stock photo. It will probably be changed before I put it on amazon.
