Re: How do I.....

	You should refer Mac questions to a Mac newsgroup not answer them in an 
Apple// newsgroup unless they have at least the smallest connection to 
an Apple//. In this case there is no connection to the Apple// at all. 
By sending the original poster to the Mac groups he will get information 
from people who work with Macs (that is why they are in a Mac group not 
in an Apple// group). Answering the question here is about as relevant 
to the group here as answering a question on the construction of RC 
Airplanes.
