Pat,    (01)

Just got around to reading your message (I was out all day with my son 
yesterday).    (02)

Since you mentioned that multiple versions of Protégé can co-exist on 
the same machine, I think I'll just try installing their latest 
(Protege-2000 v2.0.1 <http://protege.stanford.edu/download.html>) and 
see if that gets us anywhere. I'll try to work on it later today (as 
soon as I finish handling urgent matters), and will call you then to 
coordinate the testing. In the mean time, I won't be restoring normal 
access yet.    (04)

Cheers.  -ppy
