Hi Bill, Congratulations in getting the DVD out.
To answer your question, there are 2 other ways I use to find out which apps are running: 1. Pressing 'Command' & 'Tab' keys will show all the running application icons 2. Going to 'Apple' -> 'Force Quit' will list all the running apps. Have a nice week-end, Philippe C. -- If you want to find out about the road ahead, then ask about it from those coming back.
