program, I get the following error message:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Book Antiqua">It appears to be a fatal error since typesetting
terminates at that point. Not being much of a "TeXpert", I do not know how to
correct this problem. If you would give me some guidance here, it will be much
appreciated since I need to include several commutative diagrams in my
article.</FONT></DIV>
