Gene Tried the things recommended in the document you attached but no joy. Solution 1 -- I could not find the MSI file so I downloaded a new copy of the full 7.0.8 from the web site. It would not install but it did copy files down. I tried doing the update hoping that the missing files would be found but it did not work. Solution 2 -- removing with appwiz.cpl is the same as using remove/change programs. Downloaded the new stuff, did the configuration but bombed when it tried to delete old version. Solution 3 -- I do not have a disk except the ones that came from Dell, and that was probably an earlier version and it is unlikely that I can find the needed files on the disk, particularly since I do not know which one(s) are missing. Solution 4 sounds scary. Does anyone know what I am missing and where I can copy it from/to? Thanks
