You should either install Linux or some Unix variant, or install something like Cygwin. _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

You could also create or download a macro that does the same thing in Word.
Actually, I think Word normally checks for passive voice and lexical illusions, so you would only have to worry about 'weasel words'. _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

I don't really use Open Office Writer or whatever the Word clone is, but if it's like the spreadsheet program then it's bound to be much, much better than Word. _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

| Open Office is really great, and the interface reminds me more of WordPerfect, which I always liked more than Word. |

I've spent a lot of time working on my writing, lately.
Shamefully, my ability to write was better when I was a 15 year old posting at MPP and got worse over the years. |
