I updated to the July 2001 TeXLive cdrom and then downloaded the latest stable context. Now I get the run though to completion but there is a message: Fatal mem file error --- I'm stymied. The only sidebar that apears is a red line in the left hand margin of the first page. That is the page where there is a sidebar nested in a sidebar. I use pdefetex. Would pdftex be better for this app? John Culleton -- Able Indexers and Typesetters http://wexfordpress.com
