Right! I do in fact have an older machine I had intended to use as a 
server, but I loaned to a friend in need... I guess I'll have to put 
up with it, I don't have to use Quark that often anyway. besides, I 
seem to have given myself bigger and badder headaches with this 7500 
I picked up last week, as you'll see from my other post.

Thanks for the help.
