Hi All, 

        Wll progress is being made. After talking to Steve, he suggested
running the setuak program. I did so and after exiting the program the
transfer tool started seeing the RFBD files. I'm rather certain that I had
gotten the message telling me that the Bookcourier had been authorized
successfully but maybe something happened. So If you get a message telling
you that the user authorization key is invalid try running the setuak
program agin. 

        Now for the next issue. While trying to transfer a book I was
prompted for my pin. I entered this and things teem to be going well. I then
was prompted to insert the 2nd cd. I did so and pressed enter on the ok
button. Then I was prompted to insert the 1st cd. after doing so I pressed
the ok button. The insert volume 1 cd and press ok prompted keeps coming up.
I've done this 5 or six times and the transfer never goes through. It is as
if I am inserting the wrong cd but I'm not. 

Tommy

Tommy,

Send me your phone number and a good time for me to call. This should all 
work...
