Coraleigh,
Thanks for taking the time. I thought your first link and suggestion was
the ticket but I achived the save results as before the error.

I am not running a 64bit operationsystem so not sure if I want to try your
second link.

Hi Dan,

Installing this update is supposed to fix various VSS errors...
