I have not tested this back on Danny, but it seems to be past the point 
where it couldn't find anything. I have no idea how it worked in the 
past. I remember having to toy with it a lot.  I'm still not clear about 
all the paths in a recipe.  So I just copy others and try things that 
eventually work.

Thanks,
