Paul, thank you. After messing around for some time and not accomplishing
it, I tried something just after posting the first message. What I did was
to go into the program and under preferences found an option to have it run
on startup (silly me, didn't see it before!! ) Second thing needed was to
tell the program via the same preference tab that once the program was
running it was to automatically connect, i.e. without my having to click on
the "connect" tab.
I feel a little sheepish about bothering the group with the question.
Now I can explore how to "drag the program into the startup group" because
at the moment I'm not sure where I find that group! At any rate, I'm up
and running.
Thanks.
Chet
