Keith,

Can she make changes and send it back to you or is it just a oneway
street? I was hoping to have the accountant correct things for me and
then
pass the file back. But thanks for letting me know at least the accountant
can open my file....the tech support at Intuit said that couldn't even be
done!

Thanks,

Liz
