DV8_FX,

Thanks for your reply.  I've figured it out.


There was one step in the sequence of instructions where I needed to duplicate a particular layer and then move the layer to the top of the layer stack.  Not knowing any differently, I accomplished this task the same way that I have a million times before, by right clicking on the layer and choosing, "duplicate layer".  As far as accomplishing what I wanted to do, that worked perfectly fine, as it should and as it always has.


For some reason, a real dim light went off in my head and something came to me that I should try and as it turned out, it was the right experiment.  What I found out was the as far as the ACTION was concerned, it wanted me to actually select the layer by left clicking on it FIRST and THEN once it was selected in THAT way, THEN right click on it and duplicate it.  Once I added that extra step, (which wasn't really necessarily as far as accomplishing the task and hand), then and ONLY then did I create an action that ended up working without a hitch.


Thanks to everyone WHO tried to help me.  I appreciate it.  Being an action newbie, I guess I have to learn that when recording them, they like to have certain steps done in certain ways or they get temperamental.  LOL!


Thanks again!


Randy
