Thanks for your response. However, my problem is that the available
standard patterns print out too dark and closely-spaced, so that you cannot
easily differentiate between the different patterns in the printed output.
I am looking for a way to change the pattern scale so that it prints out
more legibly.

Thanks...rdm

Go to Format on the tool bar - click cell. Select the Pattern tab and
then,
at the bottom of the tab, click the arrow in the box that says pattern -
all
options will pop-up.
