I'm writing a cover letter to a potential employer. It is addressed to a woman, and I'm not sure whether I should use "Ms." or "Mrs."

What's your opinion??

Ms. is the proper former IIRC. Some women can get upset about being called Mrs. when they are single.

Yeap. Rule of thumb: If you don't know, use Ms.
