      I had no problem using the link. You might want to copy and paste it into your address window. You should also be able to find it at www.ibm.com.

      Scott found the page. It has a clear drawing of what you want to do. Yes, you need the free download of Acrobat Reader to read a .pdf file. Below are all the links you need:
