Yep Winfried - you hit the nail right on the head, and for the life of me, I can't figure out why this is happening. I basically started over from scratch and based the book/files on a different template with formats that I know worked (rather than try to create an entirely new one from scratch) and now all is fine. But I gotta' admit - I am/was stumped.
