Hi James,
Glad to have helped. Yes, it can take a l o n g time for the search!
To help you find the file you want, it is possible to sort the resultant list in various ways in File Explorer. See attached illustration. Click the little arrowhead at Sort By for the drop=down list.

I've just logged in and see that there are 16 "guests" also on line. Who are these guests? Why don't they sign up? Or are they just bots looking for somewhere to post spam?
I haven't tried voidtools. No doubt if Tom recommends it, it is excellent and easier to use, but you can search in File Explorer too. Open FileExplorer, navigate to This Computer/C:, type *.ppp in the Search slot. and press Enter. The search may take some time to complete, depending how much clutter is on the hard drive.
a solution in search of a problem
Yes, indeed!
Very clever! But I can't think of why or when I would want to use it.
Thanks for the confirmation.
Halls were painted in a green livery like the top express locomotives
Halls were built by the GWR at their Swindon works. The livery nof the Halls was similar to those of Castles, Kings etc. I doubt if Stanier had anything to do with their design.
Would you like a clue?
No. I want to know what you find interesting.
You don't need the Registration number to install (you can use 881887), you need the Product Key. You will see this under Help/Registration Wizard.
Put the CD (actually a DVD) in the drive, and if it doesn't run automatically, open File Explorer, and double click Setup.exe.
You may have to copy the whole DVD to your hard drive if that doesn't work.
This is not something I have ever done or attempted. I found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FVA1snxRhE tutorial for doing this in PhotoShop, and I would think you should be able to much the same in PhotoPlus. Good luck!
If you still have the program installed on a computer you can see the product key under Help/Registration Wizard.
I just selected your circle, went to the Colour tab, and selected a transparent fill.
What am I missing?
Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you got it to work.
Displaying Ken's string using the Webdings font is interesting.
But you can't be bothered to show us?
Quite right, Kevin. Don't forget you can also add Padding, and/or margins, to a frame using Frame Properties on the Format menu.
Which community? The Serif Community is no more. Some of us have moved here.
Put the text in a frame, select the frame (not the text) and add a line with the Line & Border tool (left toolbar).
The funeral of the Belfast flute maker Sam Murray
William, Please stop your very annoying habit of posting links with no explanation of what they are about.
As well as what Kevin has said, and that would be the usual way, you can also use the Insert menu to add a pdf into an existing publication. Insert/Publication.

William,
I notice that you invariably ask AI to produce an "original" picture. How do you suppose AI could produce a picture that is not original? Would that not have serious copyright problems?
I don’t agree with Geoff’s assertion about the correctness of the sentence
On reflection, I agree with your disagreement!
Thank you for pointing out that that that is surplus and that that that should be deleted.
To save members of this forum having to follow links to another forum in which they may well have no interest, nor subscribe to, Williams sentence is:
So it may be that Canva will decide that notwithstanding the present policy that a new policy will be instituted whereby after each meeting that considers ideas put forward by members of the community that due to Pledge 4 there will be published a document listing each suggestion that was considered at the meeting and what was decided about it, maybe to implement, to reject, to defer to a later meeting and in the meantime tests are to be done.
That sentence is not incorrect, but would not earn you good marks in any English exam.
Yes, there is an issue with using a word a number of times in a sentence. It comes under the heading of "style". No editor, or sub-editor, would allow it to pass unmodified.
Unlike in maths and science, being "correct" in English writing is not enough!
There is also an issue with unnecessarily long sentences, especially those with sparse punctuation.
You can change file names in File Explorer. But why don't you give it the name you want when you first save it? When you click Save on a new document you get a dialogue box that allows to name the file.
If you only save it as a PDF, future editing will be more difficult. It is better to keep a .ppp version.
