Thanks for the link but I had that book open on my desk when I wrote my plea. 
I also have all of the PowerHouse 8.39 manuals on my Kindle and in pdf from on
my desktop.  But I still prefer the dead tree version when faced with a
conundrum like this.

It has to be something rediculouly simple and obvious once I discover what is
the problem but at the moment I am at a loss to explain why this is happening.
