Thanks so much Hoggins and Wayne!  The pow fix does work and compiled
to completion, but I am now facing the 'can't connect to database'
problem, and it looks like the database is not actually created, so I am
going to have to back up and make the changes Wayne suggested.

  I really, really appreciate the contributions everyone makes to this
forum.  You guys (and gals) are the best!
