Julie:
Sometimes all the moves, etc., do take a toll on the client. I've found
that re-installing the scheduling component only fixed the problem (I had
technical support install two new NICs one day on one client which promptly
stomped on two required DLL files for the scheduler). I took the required
files from a server I knew worked, copied them to the non-working machine
(this can be via the network or diskette), re-booted, and viola! Back in
business again.

Thanks Murray, actually I did. I was logged on with Administrator access
and checked each directory level's security info. Each one had Full
Control for the Adminstrators. I found this info by choosing the
Properties of each directory, selecting the Security tab and then
Permissions. I'm assuming this is where the proper permission info is,
please correct me if I'm wrong or missed something.
Thanks Again,
Julie
