Hello

Yes, I am using and old perl version; it's the only one available to me. This is current perl -v, "This is perl, v5.6.1 built for i686-linux-thread-multi"

So this perl version did not like the replacement s/(.{20}) /$1\n/gr , any other idea to satisfy this wrap around text ?

I really would like to see your wrap around text code work.

I was super busy at work today and feeling under the weather but I will post some updates to the GUI.

Right now, only thing I can see having an issue is capturing the selection into a log file

And adding a email utility with output of the selections.

This is what I think the GUI to look

A= Left side frame with ( about 4) long texts with a corresponding checkbox.

B= 2 files chosen by using a file browser to select certain bank monthly statements.

C= Lower frame is a "Special Note" selection that opens up for user input.

D= Email button which sents an automated email with output of GUI to, say, daughter.

diagram isn't working out; I tried. Sorry.

x A \t\t x \t\t B x

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

x \t\t C \t\t x

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

x \t\t D \t\t x

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for the help on formatting the checkboxes, adding the note pad too, and adding an extra checkbox
