I appreciate the people that offered to assist me in this problem.  I
really only had one person that had a negative comment but the rest were
very helpful.  This is why this list is still the number one place I go
for information.  I did scour the M$ lists and google (before posting to
the Fedora list) to try to find my answer - even made some posts to
those lists and have yet to see a single response.  Thank you very much.
