I deleted PPM3 a few times and replaced it with various URL's, including the one posted in the help file. None worked. The last one was a local directory that contained the zip and unzip file, and it still didn't install it. Finally, I used the url posted at the end of my code box, however it installed 4.0005 which will hopefully work. I'll find out tomorrow after I get some sleep.

If I do have issues with this new version, is there any reason why I can just copy the files myself? That is, use the 3.0002 version files and copy them to the locations listed in the code box?

Thks for the help.
