Hi,

I haven't found the problem yet, but I fixed the bat file so I can 
print.  Apparently the %PFPROG% contained the extra appl.

The problem was probably caused by  the following:

A few weeks ago I installed a software upgrade and my computer locked up 
when I tried to use their software.  One of their tech guys linked into 
my computer and removed some files and got my computer to working.  But 
then I found out he had somehow removed the FILES (not directories) from 
within the c:\appl\bat directory, c:\appl\filepro\MAC directory and most 
other files in c:\appl\other directories.  I had backups and copied and 
pasted back the missing files.

I am still trying to find out why and how he removed the files.
