Hi again, I did get pspp 8.5 installed on my machine but not a newer version. I guess I will be happy with that for now and keep learning. I will google the error message. What a great idea. I love using this program for my stats students so they can keep using it after they graduate but I do not like when they have downloading problems. With that I am almost tempted to just go back to SPSS and know that they will never use it again after they graduate. Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it. Julia
