Apparently you just copied the shortcut instead of the file itself. Go back to the desktop (or the BB directory) and find the shortcut. Right-click on it, select "Properties", then left-click the button that says "Open File Location". Once a directory opens up with that file highlighted, "copy" it via right-click then open up C:\BB directory and "Paste" the file in that directory and try re-building your styles again.

| Pete,,,obviously that is what has happened (it's tough being technologically illiterate,,,LOL). Your suggestion works fine for copying the complete file instead of just the shortcut. Problem now is that when I go to "paste" I get a message that I must have administrator privilege to add the file. Since I'm the only one who uses this computer, I thought I had full control???? Not sure what it is safe to change in the way of security,,,or what implications a change might have?? |

From Start Button, Go to "All Programs", "Accessories", "Command Prompt". Right-click on "Command Prompt" and left-click to "Run AS Administrator"
Enter "cd C:\BB"
The prompt should now say "C:/BB>"
You will need the path of the file location and name (which you can get from the properties box from the previous instruction, then enter after the prompt like this: "copy file location/filename"
As you opened this command prompt with Admin priveleges, it should copy for you

Man Pete,,,I hate to be such a dummy!!! That all works real good,,,until I enter what I thought was the path/location (which I copied and pasted from the "properties"),,,it is C:\Users\owner\Downloads\c_price8.sty
Actually it reads "C:BB>copy file C:\Users\owner\Downloads\c_price8.sty" (no quotations)
Then I get a message that says something like "system cannot find this file" |
