Hi, Erick.  I'm glad it's working now.  Sorry I gave you the run-around on
this problem; I learned a thing or two about this software myself.  When I
update the documentation to prepare for the next release I will add all the
troubleshooting steps we went through, starting with the most recent one.
:-)

I'm glad that my work is useful.  If nothing else, it is very helpful to
receive feedback so I know what areas of the software and documentation need
improvement.  If you find something that's broken or you have a suggestion
of how to make something work better or make it easier to use, then let me
know.  I may not be able to get to it right away, but at least it'll go on
my list of things to look into later.
