SC - a perplexing computer problem

[Olwen the Odd]

Greetings again to everyone.  I have jumped back on the list for a time.  I 
have missed the information as well as the banter.

Huette, it sounds like your computer has dyslexia.  Has anyone tried writing 
medireview and seeing how it comes out?  Good luck with the quirk.
