Quig Quig Junior Member Registered: 06/21/08 Posts: 82 Loc: Rhode Island	I'm not exactly sure if this is the right forum for this question, but I see these expanders and sometimes word expanders mentioned in many of the emails. I have no idea what this is or what it pertains to. Pam

For instance, you might key in "abbr" and when you press the spacebar for that "word," "abbreviation" will appear on the screen. There are pre-programmed terms available for some expanders, and you can create your own. _________________________ Redpen (The Andrews School)

They are available on the internet? Yes! It IS a good deal! It's an even better deal if you have it include "and accommodation" at the end! You have to be careful what goes into it! _________________________ Redpen (The Andrews School)
