I may try that if I can't address the underlying problem fairly quickly. It would be a stop gap, just to get the one story done, rather than a long term solution.
I have saved the current story off as text only, just in case I need it. That took about half an hour to manage because Word kept locking up when I tried to save.
If our other laptop (the one Scott was using that used to be mine) hadn't died last week, I'd probably just use that instead. Sadly, that one's fried and not salvagable. I may have to use the desktop machine. I'd just prefer not to because I can't monitor Delia while doing it and because it's not ergonomically comfortable for me.
