Hi Steven,

Excellent. I assume you meant mozilla!l.exe and not mozilla!t.exe. I can
now run both Mozilla and Thunderbird. In fact, I can have the normal
Mozilla now running and still open Thunderbird, which was my original
goal.

One question:

When Thunderbird opens, I get a blank (black) screen with a large,
blinking cursor in the upper left corner. If I type control-esc, I can get
to the mail in-box. Is there a way to go directly to the mail in-box
without getting that large black screen?

Thanks again,
Sandy
