Dear Whit and everyone,

I cheated in the end and reinstalled Debian....   Grub saw Windows and put it 
in the menu correctly. But Windows still boots up as default when I boot the 
PC.  Using F8 I can boot the other disk and Grub appears as normal and I have a 
choice between Debian and Windows......

It is a funny business.  Thanks for the suggestions.
