Thanks for the tip. texexec --version tells me=20 context : ver: 2005.06.27 cont-en : ver: 2005.06.27 fmt: 2005.8.31 mes: english which is pretty uncool. I guess I'll give the mswincontext.zip a try. I've hesitated because I don't see any clear instructions anywhere and the directory structure in that zip file is unusual for a Windows distro. Also don't want to ditch MiKTeX entirely because I'm experimenting with LyX. Sigh... How about just installing ConTeXt myself on top of MiKTeX? Should work, ri= ght? Gavin
