    I was just yesterday wondering where the PM send/read links were. If one chooses the correct Help link (Forum Help, not Help), and pokes around a while, they may eventually discover: The Private Message system

    Hi Chris,

    Yes, you can create very long Fm docs by importing database and spreadsheet styles. I'd be happy to take a peek at your files to give you a better answer.
