I'm so relieved. Thank you. It didn't make sense to me, but I saw no explanation about that part of it anywhere.
Full speed ahead. (ish) I am struggling a bit getting it to work in the emulator.... it seems like I can only do ARM architecture on V7 or below in the emulator. And using an X86 emulator gives me the "NO_MATCHING_ABM" error when I hit test. But at least there are no permanent obstacles. :) Thanks again. On Sat, Dec 28, 2019 at 11:47 AM J.
