Hi, my friend is helping me out. He is a computer expert.
He disabled the startup script folders, and sure enough, the javascript error went away.
Neither of us are sure what startup scripts (his forte is more programming.)
Is the update really necessary? I bought the suite on a student discount, and am happy with CS3, and don't necessarily want to upgrade, or spend money at this time. Is it expensive? And possible to only upgrade InDesign alone, everything else works fine.
Thank you for your expedient reply.
