Martha, for some reason, my e-mail message to you was returned, so I am
posting this to the list.  Maybe others will find it useful, too.

Today's Federal Register Table of Contents
http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/index.html
This will bring up screen that says National Archives and Records
Aministration.  Under Federal Register Online via GPO Access, click on Table
of Contents of the Federal Register.
If you have Adobe Acrobat reader , you can push PDF file.  It will load
automatically.  Press print (left button on the Adobe bar).  If you do not
have Acrobat reader, press text button.  It takes many more pages to print
off text file.

To search for a specific article, note the number of the first page and go to:
http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/aces/aaces002.html
The screen will say GPO Access Keeping America Informed Electronically - Connect
to GPO Databases Online.  Scroll down using the right elevator button until
you see a white window in the middle of the screen. Use the down elevator on
the white window to find and highlight the Federal Register volume you want.
The current Volume 62 (1997) is already selected by default.

Continue down with the screen elevator button until you see another white
box titled Search Terms.  Type in the first page number of the article you
want. Put it in quotes (e.g. "5981").

If you don't know the page number, but do know the date, you can search for
a subject and date (e.g., "ecological assessment" AND date=2/10/97).

When you have entered the page number or subject and date, press SUBMIT.
Sometimes you get a message that the server is busy or down.  Press submit
again (and again...)

When the search is complete, a sign that says GPO Access..Keeping America
Informed Electronically - GPO Access Search Results will come onto the
screen.  Scroll down until you find the item of interest. Occasionally it is
difficult to choose the one you want, but reading the summary helps. Press
the text button and you will get ascii text. It takes many more pages to
print and you don't get the word processed forms, but it is easy.

If you want a word processed version to include forms, press PDF. If you are
using Netscape it will come up with a message box that tells you there is an
unknown file type.  Choose save file.  Instead of waisgait.pdf., change the
file name and save it in a directory you can find easily (I use c:/temp).
You can do several searches and saves before quitting to print.

To print the PDF files, you must quit Netscape, open the Adobe Acrobat
reader, go to the file directory, open file and print.
