Hey, I just came home (100-yard-commute) and I can get the Windows Media Player to play a midi file on my home computer with just a left click. At least 1/3 of my problems are solved. Next I'll see if I can hear my piano midis by installing Crescendo on this computer. (It really irritates me that the page doesn't tell you what you need to be able to hear them, and they don't answer emails either.) Then I'll play around with the other computer at work.

Thanks again. I'll let you know what I find out.

Mary
