Yes, I did visited the website of LaTeX and did some reading there too... I also found "passpartout" that Mr. Jeremy Reed suggested to look at... I will try to continue my readings and research of LateX and can only hope I can make use of it in time, of course I could always try it in the next issues to come...if not I could use lyx or passepartout (backup) should time would not longer be on my side... My apologies for this late reply... Srot BULL
