I was reading that as a warning not an error! I think
I was assuming that the earlier warnings were causing
it.

 Now to figure out how to get Windows and LyX to
cooperate.  I have 7-Zip installed but apparently Lyx
is not finding it.  

Any chance that I might have to add a path either at
Windows or Lyx level?

Thanks for the help.
