Thanks.  This is the best answer yet. And frankly, after about six calls to Lacerte support and two weeks later I finally overrode the critical diagnostic because my client was tired of waiting for his tax return.  Needless to say I am most disappointed in Lacerte support. This most likely will be a deal breaker in my continuing with Lacerte after 26 years. Last thing I want to do is start over with new software but it sis difficult to accept this lack of support.
