Space in the partition you are running on. IE C:. I believe my problem was caused by the fact that I was not closing the file properly. I was simply closing the window (Win2K) with Crafty when it reported that the book had been built successfully. Now I created the book again and the only difference is now I typed quit to exit Crafty. It worked. I guess it is better not to be sloppy.. Thanks, PK
