Jheem,
Yes, that is the word I am looking for. It looks as if my memory is faulty today along with my typing. Lol, makes thing interesting to say the least.

As far as I know of my WordPerfect uses an English Dictionary, I am not to sure as to wether or not it uses an english grammer checker though. For all I know, it does.

I just tried," As I stated earlier, if I am incorrect in this it is understandable for I am the student and you are the teacher. in WordPerfect and again received no error or warning messages from either the spell checker or the Grammatik. I think jheem's suggestion is one that bears investigating. Check the language settings for your WordPerfect, to make sure that the correct dictionaries and grammar tools are being used. I would also recommend checking in at http://www.wpuniverse.com, a help forum for users of WordPerfect, in case there is a glitch in your copy. Clearly, there is nothing wrong with the sentence as you have posted it here.

I wish to thank all of you who have assisted me in my little problem and helping me to understand that “I” and “am” can be placed next to each other without there being a grammatical error. I would also, in closing, like to say that I am honored to have so many people willing to lend a helping hand, as well as to be allowed the opportunity of being a part of such an informative online community.

Thank you,

Rev. Alimae

>EDIT - I am a looser...

>EDIT# 2 - Join the club, jheem

yes indeed, musick; only a looser would "impune" jheem's previously unsullied reputation in advantia. what are you, some kind of clairvoyant?

Joke's lost on me, china. Mind giving me the punch line, and I'll work backwards from there.

jheem,

1. you didn't mean to "impune" max's word processor. impune (unpunished) was listed as "rare" by Webster in 1913. the word wanted is "impugn".
b. musick's comment about joining the club came *before this faw-paw, which was most prescient.
iii. china?!

-ron (not very) obvious

Tsuwm and Musick,
I did not mean to start a post that was going to cause any internal problems. For this I do appologise.
