Thanks for the responses so far. Since it is a student's computer I can not immediately check any of these issues. However, the images being imported are sample images I supplied and they were copied and pasted into a folder on the computer without using DT. We were only asking DT to add to the library. I may need to get her to reinstall DT 3.4, but will first try and get her to apply and suggestions given so far or hopefully others on this list have additional ideas. BTW, the language setup for her computer is Chinese which makes it fun for me. This would not be an issue would it? DT obviously is in English, but the rest of the computer is Chinese. Thanks again for the help.
