RC & Winston, thank you both for your assistance on my problem with WLM.
The problem has disappeared after following your suggestions. May you both
have a joyous Christmas and a very pleasant 2011!!!!

?Hi, Darrell.
That sounds like the career I might have had if those Air Force doctors had
not been so thorough. :^{ In 1955 they said my vision was still better
than 20/20, but that I would need glasses some day; I got my first pair in
1959. So I couldn't qualify for the initial class at the
soon-to-be-built-somewhere Air Force Academy. Later exams said I couldn't
be a pilot, or even a navigator. All I could qualify to fly was an LSD
(Large Steel Desk), so I spent my short career as an auditor at Naha AB in
Okinawa. That was followed by 30 years as a CPA in California and my native
Oklahoma before we moved to Texas in 1990 and retired.
My grandson will be glad to read your posts, from a real life pilot of the
T-33, B-52H (Number ONE bomber in the world, according to the websites he
visits), the B-58 and the 737.

No, RC, I never was fortunate enough to be stationed in California. In 1955
I graduated from AF Aviation Cadets at Laredo, TX and spent another 3 1/2
years teaching flying there in the T-33. Then a couple years as 1st pilot
in B-47s at Savannah, GA; then 5 years as 1st pilot, instructor, and
evaluator in B-52Hs at Minot AFB, ND; then 3+ years as pilot in B-58
Hustlers at Little Rock AFB, AR; then a year in Vietnam flying the "hot
one"..the C-7A Caribou (we called it the "hot one" because it had no air
conditioning).
Retired as Lt Col New Years Day, 1972... Flew Captain for Air Cal in 737s &
MD-80s until American Airlines bought Air Cal and I flew the MD-80 and
Boeing 757 & 767 for AA until I retired age 60 in '93. Taught ground school
and flight simulators for Flight Safety in Long Beach, CA part time for
another 12 years. I've been fully retired for several years now.
And..Winston...if you read this I really knew it wasn't different
"identities'" but I'm old and couldn't think of what to call my separate
mail accounts... duh! I should call them ACCOUNTS.. right?

?Hi, Darrell.
I got one short ride in a T-33 during AFROTC Summer Camp at March AFB in
1955. Were you there then? There is a T-33 here at the CAF (Commemorative
Air Force) hangar at the San Marcos Municipal Airport, but I haven't met the
owner. The "Yellow Rose" B-25 is here, too, and my grandson and I have
climbed into it a few times. He's 7 years old and a big fan of airplanes
(and boats, trains, cars...), just like we were.
Never got to even see a B-58 up close, but I made a model of it (and several
others).

Wow! So far so good. I'll let you know if I begin getting that error
message again. Thanks a lot!!! Someone asked me why I use the name Panic.
That was my call sign when I was a flight instructor in the Air Force
teaching single engine jets (T-33) back in the 1950's.

?Hi, Panic.
It took me - and many other users - MONTHS to discover the simple solution
to this baffling problem. Finally, in October, "Mavone" posted the solution
in another newsgroup. Here's a paste of my reply thanking him for the idea:

Hi, Mike.
THANK YOU!!
You mean it's as simple as that? Just UNcheck the "Include.." box on all
NGs - then restart WLM? Wow!
I tried it and, so far at least, it's working for me. ;<)
After weeks (months?) of my griping about this...it's so easy?
If it isn't still working tomorrow, I'll be back, If it is still working,
I'll be spreading the word!
More important than the pop-up itself is that the pop-up would steal focus
from whatever I was trying to do - such as compose a message, or record
transactions in Quicken, or figure out my next move in FreeCell.
Eliminating that focus-stealing is a BIGGIE!
Thanks, again!
RC

And I'm happy to report that the simple fix is still working 2 months later,
Panic. ;<)

After WLM operates OK for 5 to 10 minutes I get an error message that is
blank in the area that is supposed to show the problem. At the bottom is
says "4 out of 5 tasks have completed successfully" When I click on the
Tasks tab it shows green arrows in front of 4 of my 5 identities. The one
without the green arrow is obviously the one with a problem but there is no
error message to determine the problem.
That identity is old and has worked fine for years without changes. Any
ideas?
