To the user who inquired about the WordFinder thesaurus that comes with
MS Word 4.0:
The version you were sent in the mail that came BEFORE 4.0 is indeed much
larger than the version that comes with version 4.0 in ters of BYTES, but
I think your hunch that the version with 4.0 may just be compacted better
is probably correct. The version shipped in the mail was last modified
in July 1987, whereas the version shipping with 4.0 was last modified (and
copyrighted) in August 1988. I plan on calling MS and/or Microlytics today
for sure, so I'll let you know IF (and ONLY if) they tell me otherwise...

P.S. The MS tech support rep told me this was indeed the case. Throw out
your older, larger thesaurus.
