Much thanks for the information. I did shudder before I implemented this 'solution' and agree that if I'd known, your approach would have been very much cleaner--- for that matter had I known, I would have upgraded the machine to match the source box and life would have been without this little spe

Cyrille, I think I *may* have figured out what the problem was! There *may* have been a "ghost" open window, each, of Adobe Acrobat Reader (AAR) for 'cpan.1.pdf', and 'cpanp.1.pdf', for prior versions of these renderings that I had created. The two AAR tasks may not have shown up on the task bar
