Cherie -
For now, I would suggest cutting your sentences into sections and  
storing them as bookmarks...Keep each part short...I know that is not  
the best, and in time I am sure we can get a better way to store  
longer sentences, but it is only logical to cut that sentence up into  
halves...then store them both and later, when you are creating a  
Microsoft Word document, you would have to paste in Part 1 and Part  
2. Last week, we did not have this new SignText...we are fortunate  
and this gives Steve excellent feedback for future versions...

Maybe bookmarked sections of sentences could be loaded into columns  
in email later, who knows?
