François, I forgot to say before that when I tried to open the XML document through the open dialog BB disappeared and I was placed at the prompt with the error showing there. I tried opening the exact same XML document through the Recent Documents dialog and it opened but didn't look right. It was broken up and lines were inserted at inappropriate places. It looked just like before your latest changes. I checked the date and time on my brailleblaster.jar file and it was 8:17 this evening, so it would have to be the new one.
