I watched a video awhile back about adding special text effects in CS2. The video is now corrupted and unviewable. Specifically, it showed me how to make the first letter of a sentence large and fancy, not just the same character with a bigger point size. It also showed how to get the letters to join when using a script type font. The effects could be added with one click from the right menu. It seemed to me that menu could be reached via that little right triangle on the top right side of the character window, but I don’t see the effects I need. I see "no break", but it doesn’t do anything when I select it. Can someome please help?

Thanks,

Peter
