Thanks. It took a couple of hours to get it, get thru, and resolve.
Turns out — it has something to do with the iFinish software I run, but darned if we know what it is….
the solution was to drag the professional folder onto the desktop, open the program and then drag back in.
Weird, but it worked. Neither him nor I know why, just sort of stumbled on it.
Thanks for your help! I do appreciate it! -d-
