This bug is in version 5 beta 10 and was fixed. If you follow the instructions
in the message from Markus, it should fix the problem. Please let me know if
you can fix this problem or not.

Yes it works fine thank you, but there are several other bugs in the code
which Ill try to identify in time as I become familiar with the system. At
the moment Im a total newby coming from a ARC / INFO,  Erdas environment.

Ill spend a few hours on Linux for the next few weeks every day to become
acostomed.

I really appreciate your effort.
