The error message is telling me that you have not installed a TeX system on your computer. It's a little difficult to use a tex/latex based program without having tex/latex installed on your computer. When installing the program did the setup not ask if you wanted to download and install MiKTeX? This is the 'standard' TeX distribution for Windoze and would eliminate this error message. > Thank you for your time. I'm wiping this crap off both my HDs now! It's a little strange that you are having trouble, but hundreds of other people have not (may say something about the installer). If you don't want to use the program or troubleshoot the issue then that's fine too, have a good day. Bob
