DOCUMENT:Q149790 18-FEB-2002 [homekids] TITLE :Writer: Tips on Using GhostWriter - Case of the Blue Makva PRODUCT :Microsoft Home Kids Products PROD/VER::1.0,1.1,1.1a,1.1b OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Creative Writer for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 1.1b - Microsoft Creative Writer for the Macintosh, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 1.1b ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= This article provides tips and tricks to getting around in GhostWriter, and hints on how to obtain clues. MORE INFORMATION ================ GhostWriter is a group of documents used in conjunction with Creative Writer that directs the participant to solve "clues" in a mystery. There are nine cases to solve in the first nine documents, and the clues you get help you solve the case. The last file of the case is encrypted, so you'll use the nine letters you received as clues to decrypt the final document. The clues allow you to solve the final portion of the case. Where Is the Documentation? How Do I Get Started? ------------------------------------------------- To set up, follow the instructions printed on the disk label. This installs several files on your computer. You can start the mystery in two ways. You can either click the Begin Blue Makva icon in the MS Kids folder, or, if you are in Creative Writer, you can choose the Author GhostWriter and the documents are displayed. Start with Introduction, which explains you how to get around, what to open, and how to set up a case notebook. Printing directly from a Blue Makva document may be slow. This is because the documents are heavily formatted. Also, the case notebook cannot be printed directly. However, you can create a new document in Creative Writer and copy everything from the casebook to your new document and print it.
