Thanks for the reply, Margot. I must admit that I hadn't thought of that 
solution. :(

At the moment, LE is only installed temporarily, so when I have finished 
trying it out, I will reinstall it and do as you suggest. I too am 
wondering if there is a package/library missing off the magazine cover 
DVD, especially as an upgrade has worked. So it will be a good check.

Regards

Keith
