Funny you should mention this, I just installed the Headstart version
last night. I really wish those *#$!heads would have mentioned this in
the documentation BEFORE I started the install. Their "15 minutes"
turned into 2.5 HOURS while I shuffled items around the partitions
looking for space on my boot partition (which I keep fairly small). I
even had to take out my brand-new "Star Trek: The Screen Saver"! Boy,
was I pissed off. I got MacInTax in a bundle with Quicken (which I love --
it leaves MacMoney in the dust), so it was a fairly good deal. But now I'm
not so sure I'll get it again next year.

Question: If I'm using TrueType fonts under System 7, do I REALLY need
all those bitmaps in my System file? Did it mess with my normal
TrueType fonts?

I'm trying to implement word's feature for linking files so that
page numbers from document #1 carries through to document #2. This
is for a law school periodical.

I've tried word 4.0's instructions, namely...

under 'document', i click 'next file' and link to file #2

then, i go to my headers and insert page numbers into both of my documents

next, under 'document' i select '1' for first page on doc #1

then, on doc #2, i *try* to put '0' for first page...no effect. It doesn't
stay as '0', but simply comes up blank.

What am i doing wrong!!?

Thanks for any and all assistance, (email, I'll summarize if worthwhile)

Whats the story with this thing? I tried installing on a freshly made
System 6.07 (and I tried 6.0.8) - no other cps, inits, nothing except
what you get when you install from the System disks - when I boot up
I get the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen - it attempts to load superclock
and then blammo - "Address Error" - the docs claim that this should 
work with System 6.0.7 and up.

I tried System 6.0.5 but it catches that problem and notifies you that
superclock needs 6.0.7 and up.

Tim:

You ask if there is a way to delete a file from a Retrospect 
session. The answer is no, you cannot delete files from Retrospect 
archives. 

Retrospect retains a standard format across each media type it 
supports, and given that most tape media do not support deleting 
a file without erasing an entire tape, we have not added this 
functionality to our SyQuest, floppy and combined file backups. 

Let me know if you have any further questions about this.

I've had some resolution of the problems previously reported to all the
loyal MacInTax fans in this group.  Thanks are due to the ChipSoft tech
support people, for responding by phone to my several faxed problem reports
(the only way to report bugs free to them is via 800- number fax), not so
much because they solved the problem, but because talking with them 
crystallized the problem for me--and I was able to isolate the bug for them.

1) Installation problems.  No resolution here, yet.  Read on, folks.  Experience
shows that problems were not caused by init conflicts, etc.

2) Problems importing forms from HeadStart.  In the case of at least one
form (8829), here is what happens:
- You see two alert boxes warning you that an error has occurred, but not
  precisely telling you what the error was.
- You go in there, poke around to try and find what forms are missing.
- You get to Schedule C, double click on line (30?) to access form 8829, and
  nothing is there.
- You use this nice spiffy "Open Forms" dialog box to try to get to the 8829.
  It isn't there.  It never is, only an 8829 summary.  This is normal.  What
  is not normal is that the 8829 Summary line does not show that it is in use.
  It isn't in use, and if you open it, you will find it blank and not pointing
  to your old HeadStart 8829.
- Ahhh...so you go back to the old "Active Forms" dialog box, an ugly dinosaur
  left over from last year's version.  Voila.  There is your old 8829.  But it
  is not a /normal/ 8829.  It is called "8829:Expenses for Business Use...",
  not "8829(1):Expenses...".  This is because
            MacInTax has read in your old form, correctly as far as I can
            tell, but not linked it to anything.  The values on it do not
            propagate to other forms.  The program knows it's there, but can't
            use it.
I've reported this problem to ChipSoft.  They have not yet responded.
Anyone else who gets those alerts boxes would do well to try finding
their data the same way.. Report it to ChipSoft, and good luck.

Last week someone posted a query re: Denebas new paint program that was just

I received the same announcement, which also included the announcement of
new versions of Spelling Coach Pro and BigThesaurus.

I was a user of BigThesaurus until I upgraded from a Mac SE (version 6) to
a Max IIsi (Version 7.0).  Unfortunately, BigThesaurus was completely 
incompatible with System 7, so I have had to make do with no on-line Thesaurus.
(I only recently got Word 5, and its Thesaurus doesn't measure up to
BigThesaurus anyway.)

Imagine my surprise when this Saturday I received a FREE upgrade disk from
Deneba for BigThesaurus!  BigThesaurus version 2.0 is now a system extension,
and is now available in any application (in theory). 

As I said, in theory.  Unfortunately, I still use Works 3.0 for Spreadsheet,
Database, and dialing into work from home.  Works 3.0 does not copy highlighted
test to the clipboard, so BigThesaurus doesn't work with Works :-(   There
were two other applications also noted with the same problem, but I don't recall
which ones (sorry).

     I've heard rumours that such an animal exists, but I haven't been able

After generating files, I download them from the sys to a Mac for printing on
a local LaserWriter.  Only problem is every page I print costs money, and I

     Does anybody have or know the whereabouts of a program to preview PS

Take a good look at Resolve, from Claris. I switched to it from Excel and 
the days of frequent crashes ended forever.  Not only that, it is far 
more pleasing visually, it has a more coherent set of tools, and an 
incredibly powerful scripting language (the Wingz engine).  Resolve's 
scripting capability is much better than most other spreadsheet macro 
languages.  It's  very similar to HyperTalk in design, and easy to use 
and easy to read.

Yes, I wrote cron for System 7 several years ago.  It works, a lot of
people use it, it's free and the source code is available at no cost.
It even uses the same format for its crontab file as the real BSD UNIX 
cron (no common source code at all, however).

Anyone interested can get it via anonymous ftp to the pub/gatekeeper
directory of emx.cc.utexas.edu.

If you like it, send me email and I'll put you on the list of cron
users so you'll be notified of updates.

tell your sysadmin to update the CellServDB file, which AFS depends on
to find the file servers.... the correct numbers are:

citi:; cd /usr/vice/etc
citi:; more CellServDB

I'm looking for a decent accounting package for my Mac.
Don't recommend Quicken.

I need to keep track of large-ish research grants, but don't need A/P and A/R,
just expenditures really. I don't mind something more than I need, but not
less.

I've been using a custom 4D runtime, but it's got bugs and problems. I have no
support to keep coming and modifying it, and I haven't go time to figure out
each flaw myself.

I'd like to use a package made for 4D, if there is such a thing.

Something else would be fine too-if it does all the features I want.

I've called Acius and other palces to get demos or lists of developers, but it
seems to be an exercise an futility to get a call back.

Help!

I've heard of a 1.3c, but I'd wait for 2.0 to come out. Which should
be soon - last I spoke with Dantz, they told me February. I was told
that my upgrade would be $45.

Try Sound Master (shareware). You can have your mac make all kinds
of noises.

i am trying to use microsoft word 5.0 (macintosh version) to prepare
a class assignment.  this asssignment requires that i draw an
electric
circuit diagram on the paper.  to do this, i am using the paintbrush
feature of word.  here is my question:  I have created several
symbols for resistors, capacitors, inductors, etc etc.  i would like
to take all these symbols, put them into one single library on
a disk and then, whenever i created a circuit diagram i would like
to access this library and transfer whatever symbol i needed into
my document.  Now, I am new to the macintosh so i don't know a whole
lot about cut and paste (i think that is what i have to do) could
someone please explain to me in some detail how i should go about
doing whatever i have to do to get the job done? thanks a lot!
