Are you sure PMMUtil is not present? I see the syntax error in the 
CREATEOBJECT line, and that will be fixed. MigratePMM.EXE was still 
there, I guess you are right about removing it manually. The WPI did 
deliver PMMutil.EXE and update the object parameters, even with the 
syntax error. Oddly, the name of the object did not change. I will 
experiment and see if I can get that to work. Perhaps the syntax error 
caused the problem.

I will create a beta 3, but for now, I need to know if others can run 
PMMutil.exe, even though its icon is named wrong.

best regards,

Neil
