Richard, thank you so much for your help.
I'm glad we agree that Bluefish is excellent. I don't share your fortune 
  with printing, only get black and white. I didn't actually see a post 
about copy&paste in OpenOffice, but I'll try that too. I don't know 
about others but I value and really appreciate your input.
