| Thanks to Stefan, David and Mike for your comments. I
| still don't understand the comment that this service.lck
| file is "supposed to be there" yet the instructions say to
| delete it. But I downloaded and used David Crowell's CROA
| and was then able to upload my site changes so that is an
| improvement from where I was.
| Thanks again to you guys for making the effort to help a
| novice.
