Larry,
Thank you for the information. It seems that WinQuake is not creating the
GoogleEarth.kml file. I cannot find it at all. The permissions seem OK...
anything else?
Gary

Sounds like a directory or file permission problem. This is how this feature
works. 
When the user uses either the Display/Modify / GoogleEarth / Station or
Event menu 
items WinQuake should create a file called GoogleEarth.kml. This file should
be 
located in the WinQuake root directory. WinQuake then makes a system call to
open 
GoogleEarth with the first parameter being the full directory and file name
to the 
kml file.

So WinQuake needs to be able to create the file and GoogleEarth must be able
to read 
the file in the WinQuake root directory. The first thing to check is to see
if 
WinQuake is creating the GoogleEarth.kml file. If the file is there try
double 
clicking on the file. This should open GoogleEarth and then zoom to either
the 
station or event location.
