I put a buad version of the program on my site. It refuses to open because
it references a file that I am sure is not on your computers.!

I have put up a corrected version.

I appologise to every one who tried to run the old version

Please go to www.hypermedic.com/style to down load the zip file (20K). Look
under transform XML.
