 It is a homework so I guess he may need to open it and work some more on it
at school but the portable open office and different way of saving will be
useful. I will check in the settings to make sure that the images are
embeded but I am guessing that he only dragged them which caused the
yesterday problem. (I wasn't watching what he was doing and except that he
seems to be doing Ok I'll save the image differently in a few hours and let
you know.
