Re: Window Blinks

Vanguard,

Thanks for your help, but I went to Tools, Options, and looked under every
tab and cannot find where that option that has the news account refreshed or
updated, is. I looked in both the O.E. window, and the oe news window.

Also, what does' N' stand for?

Thanks,
Sandra
