           (2) Run MMAINT, choose option 11. This will remove any
               Drive:\Path info in the Picture FileName record, leaving
               just the filename. Location will now be governed by the

               the MMAKER.HIS file.

  **> v4.6 This release was required to recompile the programs due to corrupted
           files causing strange occurrances when the 4.5 version was run. The
