Hi, MrMusicDVD.
Thanks for the feedback. Sometimes I don't know if my advice worked - or if
the reader can't post back because my advice killed the computer! :>(
And this little file - updated as required for new versions of Quicken and
Windows and customized to fit the user's system - has been needed ever since
Quicken got out of step with Windows, in Windows 2000 as I recall. I don't
know why Intuit has not bothered to fix it yet.
