I don't know what copy of the CD rom YOU have ... but MINE has FULL
Documention on the CDROM in BOTH WRITE and PS formats.  For the 69$
you are NOT entitled too the Hardcopy DOCS AT ALL. -- thats an extra
$250 or so.

According to the ads I've received, that's exactly what it's good

Use Copy Picture to take a snap shot of the present view.  This is done
with the little Camera cion on the tool bar, or by holding shift down and 
pulling down on Edit.  You can then do a paste special as a picture in Word.

I assume you are using Project 3.0, I am not sure if this works in 1.0.

Apparently, although Byte magazine says that one of the foreign database
access drivers will be missing in the first release (not ready yet).  

According to the SF Chronicle yesterday, MS had originally given it a list
price of $695, but changed it at the last minute to $495.

I was sent some materials from Claris about FileMaker Pro for Windows.
I'm evaluating it as a possible antidote for dBaseIV 1.1.  I've yet to

to see how more quickly that transition will be made.  My users are
most dissatisfied with how their database needs are being met.

From the reports I'm getting from COMDEX it seems as though everyone

But I'm not looking for the "elephant gun" of an MS-Access, or FoxPro,

Comments most welcome - but send 'em to the discussion.

Someone wanted to know why I want to use a keyboard-based editor such as
'vi' within a windowing environment.  The following reasons immediately
come to mind:

   o Vi is a very powerful editor that grows on you as your experience with
     it increases (much like C/C++).  After having used it for seven years,
     I have little to complain about (except that it doesn't support split
     screens like emacs, which allegedly had been developed but lost in
     a disk crash).
   
   o The uniformity with which it handles UNIX-style regular expressions
     is impressive - experienced users will vouch for their flexibility in
     executing complicated editing operations.
   
   o Vi works perfectly well under X-Windows (including Cut/Paste across
     vi windows), so I don't see what makes it difficult to use under
     MS-Windows.  I think it is counter-productive to keep switching
     basic tools such as editors when you work on different platforms
     (as if all the other differences are not bothersome enough!).


From the numerous messages I've received so far, a lot of poeple are
eager to get their hands on (and even pay) for a good vi editor under
MS-Windows.  So I'm still on the look out...

The answer to this question depends entirely on your needs. It appears
that what you're after is a package which will allow your Windows
workstation to communicate with your Suns, and other UNIX-hosts. Windows
for Workgroups was not designed to facilitate this. Windows for Workgroups
was designed to allow Windows workstations to easily share data between
members of workgroups (hence the name). Windows for Workgroups offers
peer file and print sharing, DDE (dynamic data exchange) over the net, 
e-mail and scheduling facilities, etc.. Although it does not prevent
you from making connections to foreign hosts, it does not offer TCP/IP
"in the box", nor does it offer TCP/IP utilities like FTP, r*, TELNET,
etc... Microsoft will be making TCP/IP available for Windows for
Workgroups customers, but I'm not sure that this is what you're 
after. It sounds like you'd be better off looking at other vendors
PC-based TCP/IP solutions.

We have NT beta here and I'm very impressed.  This is NOT windows.  This
is unix with windows laid on top of it.  It also is an improvement over
unix in some areas like scheduling.  I'm a unix bigot, but windows NT is
promising to bring the best of both worlds to the desktop, and if they
pull it off correctly, unix is in big trouble _on the desktop_.

One hears retail prices for NT that range anywhere from $200-$500.
Personally, I expect that if you don't have something to upgrade from
(Windows or Windows for Workgroups), NT will price out retail
somewhere toward the top of that range.

MS has been saying that they will get the release version of NT down
to where it will run well in 8 MB.  I have to question this, given the
hardware requirements they list for Windows for Workgroups, which is a
subset of NT functionality (8 MB memory).

NT may someday be worth the cost of updating your machine, but right
now I would say not.  Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't buy
the CD anyway, since it is pretty cheap.  Of course, you'll also need
a CD drive if you intend to load it.  

Once again personally, I expect that the first version of NT (the one
you get free at the end of the Beta program) will also be a CD version
(no documentation, except online), won't ship until mid-93 or so, and
may be missing some of the functionality people are expecting it to
have.  I guess we'll see.

Something like this should do it:

Sub MAIN
    Dim dlg As DocumentStatistics
    ToolsRepaginateNow
    GetCurValues dlg
    n = Val(dlg.Pages)
    If n < 1 Then End
    For i = 1 To n Step 2
        FilePrint .Range = 3, .From = Str$(i), .To = Str$(i)
    Next
    If(n Mod 2 = 1) Then
        msg$ = "Put all the pages except the last one"
    Else
        msg$ = "Put all the pages"
    End If
    msg$ = msg$ + " back into the printer and press Ok when ready to print."
    If(MsgBox(msg$, "Printing Even Pages", 49) = - 1) Then
        For i = 2 To n Step 2
            FilePrint .Range = 3, .From = Str$(i), .To = Str$(i)
        Next
    End If
End Sub
