Thanks Alvin,
       I did not think there was anything wrong with that version of the program.  I just thought someone else might have seen that error before, and have some idea how to fix.  As I said, I'm sure it's something about Windows.  I just don't know what.

       Anyway, I'm still investigating.  I'll post again if I find something helpful.

All best,
brynn
