I suspected a PATH issue and found this solution on a website somewhere 
and did it.  Now I can run the "make" command, but it's telling me 
there's no rule for the target I selected.  I know very well that 
there's a rule since it works perfectly on Linux, so I'm going to try 
simplifying it to see if I can make it run.

Thanks Mats,

Jon
