I read the other reply and I get it now. There is a guy who hangs out here by the nym of Helpful Harry who knows just about everything about PM. I am surprised he hasn't responded. He may be on vacation or something.

Weird. You may have a very good reason for not being able or willing to do so, but I can't help asking, why not just stick to the 98SE machine then? I still use 95B and 98SE on my 2 computers and I ain't /never/ moving on!

Hee hee, well, I just meant why get 7 when AFAIK it did nothing 6.52 didn't - except run on XP?

Check back every couple of days to see if HH has surfaced. He is almost certain to have the solution. Have you tried the Adobe website forums?
