Mat and all those who responded to my desperate attemps to make Word and 
Excel work on E/L: THANK YOU! :)

I got 1.99p6 and unpacked it, fixed the permissions and all of suddenly 
Word 5.1 and Excel 4.0 began to work. So far, no problem, except for 
printing the french accents :) The accented letters disappear but aside 
from this printing is fine.. :) I'll just have to write without accents I 
guess.. :( But I am really just happy happy happy.. :) Great Job ARDI..:)
