List: I was able to do it finally; when I had typed the statement into the body of a new message, it did NOT show up as a URL! It was only when I copied & pasted it in, that it did show up as a URL... A little weird, but I got it done...I'm really sure I made no errors in typing it in.... Robert

I am using Win 7 64 bit and Eudora 7.1.0.9 Eudora was running and all I did was click on the original entry <X-Eudora-Option:DontShowUpdates=1> in Robert's post (which was clickable) and a "Launch Application" message box for Eudora opened where I clicked "OK" and then a "Change Option" box opened in Eudora showing what was to happen. In fact you could do it now and the "Change Option" should be from "1" to "1" if it completed before. Eric
