Huge thank you to the techs here. I AM learning. I am clearing off my old HP so I can give it to my grandsons for their learning software. Well I screwed up and said yes to deleting some shared files. I lots the MSVCRT20.DLL file but I went to google, found where I could download it, burned it to a CD and put it back on my HP machine. The file was needed to use my PC Linq program so I couldn't transfer it that way and the HP doesn't recognize my cigar pro drive anymore so that's why I had to burn a CD with the DLL file. Yes indeedy I am learning (huge laugh here). Now my PC-Linq program is back running.
