Netscape or IE and printing...

Hello:
As others may agree, an easy way to pick out a page from a long document 
is to use the PRINT PREVIEW feature from the FILE menu.  That way, you 
can see the specific page number.

But what I use a lot is the ability to copy and paste. If you haven't 
discovered the Task List feature in Windows, do so right away! I just 
open a word processing document, along with Netscape, and do a copy and 
paste from Netscape to a new document.  Charts don't copy well at all, 
but maybe someone else out there knows some other trick to take care of that.
