Yup, probably so. I suggest skipping the test step and jumping to using the decoders. I will revisit the contents of my distribution sometime between now and Tuesday and correct all of my problems. The good news is that I am convinced that there are no problems in the decoders, so running the test step is unnecessary. >Karli Lopez Tom >From address@hidden Fri Jan 14 15:04:07 2000 Thank you very much for the help and for providing the file. I feared I was doing something wrong. Again, thanks for the help. Karli Lopez
