Re: "*.pps is not a valid Win32 application" error message

Ray, The database server was temporarily down at that time, and it's working now after restarting the VDS. Did you receive my mail today (sent 3 hrs ago)?

Gary, thanks but this link returns 'ads only' on Ramesh's home page. He did
have a post that I was hopeful about (which didn't work), and he has sent
another round of advice that did not work either......but I am staying
hopeful that he or some other smarter-than-Vista genius out there will have a
puzzle piece for me! Thanks for your response
