Thanks for the reply on this one. Unfortunately, since I have a clean install of iTunes on top of a clean install of Windows, I had lost all of the apps from there. Fortunately all of my music was backed up on another drive and I just had to re-import that. I have been going back and downloading apps again. Fortunately I don't have to repurchase those I had bought earlier. It is giving me a chance to do some housecleaning on apps I no longer use.

Thanks again.
