I downloaded, but seems to still fail in this version. 6066 was the last
version of PB9 that is not broke as far as I can tell. Thanks for the info,
I have seen some of the other problems listed as fixed in this build.

I'm testing with a 901 release candidate and it works now. An earlier 901
build still failed.
901 will be available early August.
