Ok, thanks. Wouldn't it be possible just to send me some printable file that 
has all the bus cards arranged ready for print out as a matrix of 2 by 5 cards?

The attempt to install over the old Corel folder failed. It stalled on some 
  filke, WTUI80.dll. I think I'm just going to delete all files in the folder.

Printable with what? You have never stated what software you DO have.

Here's a pdf that should be printable .. as I said, you may have to 
fiddle with the print scaling when you print to make it fit standard 
Business Card paper.

No, it's impossible to provide you with a "print file" (.prn). That 
requires the drivers for your printer to have a file that can be 
copied to your printer.

I have no idea why you're trying to uninstall, re-install, install 
over or what it is you're trying to install or whatever.

Anyway, I hope this pdf works for you.  If it doesn't, you'll just 
have to take the image files I posted and figure out how to place them 
in whatever software you have to get the necessary printout.

That was perfect. Thanks. A printable file is harkens back some long time 
ago. I think it's still possible to produce one with the Win Print command. 
It's a file that is ready to go for printing on some particular type of 
printer. In other words, it's got all the print commands buried in it that 
skip a page, select font for the next text etc. It's probably available in 
Word or other WPs.

See my first 10/16 post (10 am here) about install and the difficulty I've 
had doing that plut uninstalling what I see in the \program files\corel 
folder. On the latter, the ("re") install bogged down. See comment
about 
WTUI80.dll on 11/07

I'll be out of town for 3 weeks in two hours, and won't have the internet 
NGs available.

I'm back from my trip now.
Well, it was perfect except for one small item. That was an old chp file 
with my old address and web site. Could you please another such file with 
sierra_mtnview@sbcglobal.net as my e-mail address and 
www.speckledwithstars.net/ as my web page. Sorry about that. I was in such a 
hurry to get on my way, I forgot to really look at the content. One other 
small point. It looks like the height is maybe 1/16" too much. By the time

the last row of cards is printed, the last line is very close to the bottom 
of the card.

Yes print files are easy to create. But the appropriate printer is 
needed, which only YOU have.

I strongly suggest that you get a program that's capable of doing 
business cards, and redo it in that program. You might try Avery 
products - they used to have a free one, and maybe they still do. They 
do offer free label templates that work with many applications. It's 
even built in to MSWord (Tools/Labels). I don't know what software you 
DO have, you've only mentioned what you DON'T have :), but I'll bet 
you already have something that would work just fine.
