I hope to hear from her that it worked. If it worked I will post the solution.

yes it worked I thank you so very very much!

Fantastic!! Ok everyone. If you have a EQ5 and you can't get it to load a New project just let me know. Verna had this problem and she had tried to put in several project names but it didn't work. She didn't use any punctuation or anything.

So since the problem is the EQ5 is old and the new system doesn't want to connect with the old program in the opening box-- I sent her a file from my EQ and she opened it in her EQ and it let her save as a new file and allowed her to get into her EQ5. I just sent her the file I started when I wrote the first class. The one I named New. I chose it because it was the smallest EQ project file I had and I wanted to make sure it would go through email ok.

I am so excited to know this as it is another "run around" we can use when someone has this problem.

Excellent! great to know we can find a way....I had just never had this kind of problem before so i thought it was some kind of disc glitch ... glad she is off and running...

Where there is a will there is way! I am stubborn and I don't give up easily. It will bug me until I come up with a solution or it is proven to be absolutely unsolvable.

hmmm...just went to try again and it worked as it always had...did you change your tool to the 'Select tool' before you tried to delete it? not that it matters if you can get there otherwise, but if you have one bad line and convert, it is going to make them all guidelines and that MAY not be what you want... i'm in 5...is that a difference for you?

one of my favorite quotes, "I am persistent, you are stubborn, she is obstinate!" that's how we get those points to come out JUST RIGHT...:D
