    Before I go there permit me to paste this which turned up during a backup I was doing in case I needed to reinstall XP

    I would not think it unusual for some things to be denied access, due to being in use. What backup program were you using?

    Thanks all for your persistence with this one..you obviously have more stamina than me...72.

    We can shut this one down now as I re-installed XP and am now in the process of loading my software to get some sort of resemblance/configuration that I have been accustomed to.

    Thanks to ALL.

    Thanks for posting back, and don't forget about backup, this time.
