O.k., so far so good. as it appears, this is the "what happened/happens". We purchased Poser 6 and only this version, and this is our first "Poser" program. When you install Poser 6 it also puts in a Poser 4 folder, for whatever reason. By default, the UTC program places the Mat files in the Poser 4 runtime. All I did now was move the Mat files into the Poser 6runtimelibrariespose3D Universe Pose, and retian the texture files into the original texture folder (where the original V2 textures are) and all seems to be well. I really can't thank you all your help, and a special shot out to randym77 for his continuos, persistent, nagging, support (haha, seriously though, thank you randym77, you helped me a great deal)
