Howdy!
Actually we did remove reinstall, update, hacked registry we all took turns
on it most of the day.
We finally did get it repaired in all of our 40 years combined experience
the only fix was a repair installation.
Strange. but I guess we'll call it resolved.
Have a wonderful day, THanks for the reply.
