<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>However, now that I am working on it at home,
the error message "no file 'mpx314.aux'" appears when I try to compile it.
I have tried it on my older system (Miktex 2.6 running on Vista) and on my
laptop (Miktex 2.8 running on Vista Home Premium). Actually, on the laptop
I also get a popup telling me that "dvitomp.exe has stopped working" and
directing me to the Windows update page. Am I doing something silly, or is
this a bug, or what? Thanks kindly.</FONT></DIV>
