Hi Helen,
when i try the user tool the only window i can copy and paste into or (type) is the sample tool. If i try to create a new user tool the file creates but is blank and i can not type or copy and paste when i open it. It is probably my ignorance, as i am just overlooking something, but i read the mini manual and help file and end up in the same old place.

Hi John,
I think you need to select Edit User Tool from the Selection menu (or Command U). This will bring up a window in which your User Tool is able to be edited. When you are done typing or pasting, you simply click update and you now have text in the User Tool.

I know you addressed Helen, but I thought I'd throw in my comments.

I'm sure Helen can correct me if I'm wrong or missed something.

The User Tool capability is actually one of my favorite features of Accordance.

Hi Brent,
when i try that the edit user tool the screen comes up, but if i select a file and click ok, the screen disappears. Command U brings up nothing at all,
my other commands seem to work fine. I will try it on my ibook when i get to the office.

It works fine on my ibook, thanks for the heads up.

I think i will do a re-install on my desktop. I think whatever the problem is there will be resolved by this.
