Glenn,

You have the idea, but it's not yet in the ballpark.

    Not necessarily.  Both call upon InSight to read the message; the
problem occurs *before* that point.  The problem is that Arachne cannot
find the *.mes file and "forward" it on to InSight for processing.

  I didn't think it would make a difference, since I never get this far.
<G>  For that line to have any effect Arachne must have found the file
12345678.mes ... it doesn't.  So changing minimum memory requirements
[which I met anyway] didn't change the software's response.

     I wish it were that easy... :<
