Ken, Ian and Brad
I was missing these thread so far. But now with the new headline I saw it was
the same problem I had. (some of us surely remember the little flame war I
caused by writing "mechaniKal")
This Problem appeared when I clicked the default button and I managed the
problem, with your help Ian, by using copying the LayerList you posted into
ADVPCB99se.ini-file of Protel.
Worked well for me

Waldemar
