Thanks Darryl,

OK...I went into DOS (several times, trying & retrying) I followed the
instructions but always came up with the same answer.  Cannot move this file
does not exist.  So I went back in to look again at the dll & I found I
never unzipped it.  The first time I unzipped it into the dll folder in
downloads folder, when that didn't work I unzipped it into windows temp
folder.  Went back into dos, same instructions, each time I tried I got the
same message:  This file does not exist.

But I can see it...in both folders.  At least I see a round nut-type icon
that says msvcp60.dll.  I think I would be happier if my computer could see
it too.

Is seeing believing or may I should start over, delete the dll folder go
back on the net & redownload the dll & try everything again?

Jan

They where reffering to doing it in DOS, while you are running windows it
wont let you overwrite the bad for the good as the bad will still be in use.
