Thanks, but I don't need a spreadsheet.  I do use FileMaker Pro 9 as  
my database management tool.  I like it a lot.  I've just been  
looking at Mariner as a Word Processor,  I still like Pages and  
Mellel but I'm wondering if something else might be just as good.
Bless all of you who are devoted to Word, but even back when I was  
still a PC user, I didn't like Office all that much.  Does Word  
Perfect still exist?
