Hi,
This sounds pretty good, I am not seeing the name of the book though. Am I
missing it somewhere?
Thanks, Beverly

Hello All:
I came across this book at BookShare. It is a very large book and I have
found many chapters to be quite helpful to me, especially the chapter on
swatches/gages. I thought many of you might find it of interest too.
I have copied the Table of Contents below for your reference.
