Dear Jim (and John and Everybody):


	What you wrote helps considerably. I have another question before
I proceed. In your note below, the second  entry in the path file is

C:\Perl\bin\

The AnnBuilder documentation states thatit requires Perl to run.
The only Perl I have on my PC is
C:\Documents and Settings\Richard\Local Settings\Temp\R-2.0.0\share\perl

Is this sufficient, or do I have to download Perl and place it in a
directory for AnnBuilder to run?


Thanks and best wishes,
Rich
