OK gang, thanks for the many attempts to help so far, but as yet
nothing works. Remember, I have an MP110 running NOS1.3...

I don't have this little round button!?!? My Extras drawer looks
exactly as described in the Newton manual (it is the NCK manual I
don't have) with the volume indicator, battery indicator and the
x-box, and nothing more. I don't seem to have any way to get at a
list view? Perhps there is some other problem here except that the
Extras drawer is as per manual and all basic info functions seem to
work. Hence I can't do the steps below.

This one came with 1.2, and I read somewhere that the Modem enabler
prefers to have 1.3 I'm hoping to do basic email on it.

I have now tried this what seems like a million times to no avail -
the best that ever happens is that Mahjongg opens (which is beginning
to drive me nuts). I've got the 'scrubbing' of text etc. worked out
so I think I have this 'touch'.

Thanks for this.

Sorry, but no..... I tried about 100 times to get the dot and
square, but there is no 'toolbox' in this OS version.

Nothing lke this happens on my Newton 110??????
I am getting more than a little frustrated. I can make Macs dance
but this is eluding me. I have that nasty suspicion that I am
missing some tiny piece of the puzzle.
And worst, the Mahjongg thing is still there! I like the game
(Shanghai is a staple on my Macs) but it is too small for my eyes on
Newton,besides I am triying to reserve space to work out an email
setup.
HELP!!!!
