OK...

For whatever reason-I am unable to edit my posts...Weird.
Anyway! I fixed the camera after a little trip over to the Canon site. Ridiculously easy. I had hunted the house over for the user guide and found literally everything BUT that. What a relief to see my problem addressed on the site. My LCD/electronic display was not working-but after a few hits to the right buttons-we are back in business! Whoo Hoo! Now I need to re-check and see if the pics that I added in to the previous post are still there.
