O.K., gave THIS another go (had I actually done it before??) and, after 
setting a new Password, I could log into my NEW account ........ as long

Bugger!!

.... which reminds me .... one day I should try setting up the Printer 
that I used with the old Desk-top that I used before the old Laptop that 
I used before THIS Desktop!! ;-)
