I looked in that file and was surprised to find many scratch files (the ones with $$$ at the end) and some TMP files. All of them are from either today or yesterday. What does that tell me?

There are 46 processes in use when I bring up the Task Manager. I am very unfamiliar with how the temp files affect things. Since the settings I now have, C:\Doucuments and settings\Jim\Local Settings\Temp are on C: drive, how does going to C:\TEMP make a difference? Just wondering since they are both on C: drive.

Jim, If you wish, you may [Edit...] both User & System variables, as suggested. Do you have enough system resources (memory) available on this computer? What else is running in the background (tasks, programs, etc.)? >I do an UNLOAD and rebuild using your suggested routine you sent to me >on a regular basis.
