Victory!

Roy I followed all your instructions and after a rebuild, I FOUND ALL MY SONGS. Now I have all 17,187 of them! Even more important, now I have a much better grasp of the ins and outs of getting Hoster to work they way I want.

I really appreciate the time you spent with me. Also glad I am not tying up any more of your time.

I hope that someday I know enough to be able to help a few other folks on this forum.

I also hope that others reading this thread will avoid the mistake that I made. I have my laptop set up to allow 2 users and an administrator (owner). My wife used to be a user but she has migrated to her tablet. From now on I will only input songs from the owner position and make any required changes there. Some day I plan to dedicate a laptop to Holster only and use a second laptop for all non karaoke use.

Thanks Roy!
