Ah! D'oh! I MISSED that staff meeting! Yup, it's there but I never noticed that
part!

No longer an assumption now!

THIS is why it wasn't working for me. I was trying to do it by "remote control"
from elsewhere!

I made a test file on THIS computer and it worked.
Transferred the test file to the OTHER machine and it also worked.
Somehow I was making one other minor mistake ... after I had tried it in the
correct spot.

Good thing to know. Kind'a thought that was the case...
I've actually been monitoring the list a little for some time now... but hadn't
sent anything.
MOST times I can figure out most of what is needed.

Hmmm... I did register quite some time ago.
Actually sending thie message, I grabbed the address to post straight off
someone else's post.
My issue HERE may be that I'm using a different computer than the one I
registered on.
THAT one... is down and not functional... so maybe the mailing software is
blocking me from posting directly because I'm not posting from the origin
machine that I originally subscribed from... a borrowed computer.

... and Robin, please don't give up on being courteous to people.
Your on list courtesy in your attempt is certainly *NON-toxic", & friendly!
I appreciate your olive branch!
