Oh Prism, THANK YOU!! This did the trick although I didn't get into "options" like you do....there is no "multi-colored circle" in mine, but "options" is there under "Tools."

I learned something new, LOL! Like I've learned everything I know on the computer....by trial and error. I have made changes so that things are backed up every 5 minutes.

Thanks to all of you who were up late (or early this morning) and tried to help and support me. I felt the care and concern!

Now back to working on that pattern for you all. :D
