Thanks. I apparently missed this at the bottom of the earlier posts

I submitted a question about OODraw and got a great response right away. I tried to follow the instructions (Putting SOLVED in the subject line and selecting the green check ICON. They appear on that post, but in the basic forum, there was nothing indicating that the problem was solved. This may be deliberate, since in any given discussion others may have problems with the same symptoms that the solution I got may not solve.

Thanks,

Jim
