I think you're on to something here.  I guess my biggest problem is 
in the fundamental understanding of how PowerPro works and I should 
go back to studying it because when I edit the Snippets menu, the 
data is stored in the pproconf.pcf file but this is not a text 
file.  Not sure how to get file.txt to replace the entries in the 
snippett command list.  If someone could just point me in the 
correct direction, I promise to try to educate myself before taking 
up more space in this forum.
