I have Alice also (obviously) and do not notice that particular problem either because I am not using the Pro Pack. There was the little problem with the mapping but that has been fixed. Being somewhat of an old hand at the ins and outs of formatting and saving text files, I plan (with Handspan's permission of course) to check into this to see if I can repair the file. It is possible that the problem is related to the now corrected mapping anomaly. After all, it's only a few hundred thousand lines of numbers, how hard could that be to figure out? =};-}>
