Below is the note I received from Betty at Recording for the Blind about
books on Outlook 2000.  Currently RFB is recording one book on
Outlook.  Along those same lines, I am also learning Groupwise, version
5.5.  I found the manual online and have converted it to an ascii text
file and can share it with members of the Chicago group and members of
other vicugs.
