A followup. I found my problem. 1. I was not in the right directory. 2. The file handle of the file I was trying to run latex on was still open from when I had created it. I just had to rearrange the code to close the file handle THEN run latex on it. Silly bug :-) Mike -- The universe is an island, surrounded by whatever it is that surrounds universes.
