Hi and thanks for your response, my apologies for taking so long to get
back to you on this.

OK that cleared that problem up. I encountered several other errors
including a 404 error for expat. I solved the last one by going to the
expat home page and grabbing the source from there. It's been several
days since I last tried to tackle this, I'll try to give it another go
later in the week and let you know how I make out.

Thanks again for your help.
