Sorry I dropped out of the discussion but I wanted to post the question
before I took a few days off and I'm just now catching up. I have printed

I did not have the "2nd CD" problem but the information about uninstalling
may prove very useful.
Thanks again, and I'll check back in tomorrow or Thursday.
