Hi, Mike, Thanks for your info. Do you think by doing this I will find the required settings files that did not load when I tried to reinstall without uninstalling? I do have a current paid update subscription, so that shouldn't be more of a problem that the time expended actually doing the update. Thanks again for the info.
