Bingo!!! The one that made the difference was changing the input jacks. It
might have also been related to changing from 8 bit to 16 bit. In any case,
it now works, I can record a sound bit, and e-mail it, adapt it, etc. Very
nice!
Thanks very much for taking the time to walk me through this. I appreciate
it!!
