Hi Caroline:

I agree.  Fortunately or unfortunately, error messages can be as cryptic
as Robert states.  Sounds like some sort of issues with his system,
registry or something like that, but I'll be interested in what he finds
out.

Take care,

What's so technical about his message? He tried updating and got an
error; it's as simple as that.
