Klaus,

You're not bothering me, and, I can't figure it out. I can't get my system to give me that error. I unchecked the controls and set to default and restarted and I can still create the object OK, so obviously I'm missing something. Perhaps I performed a step with out knowing?? I'm quite embarrassed about this.

Arnon, or anyone else, do you know what we're doing wrong?
