Yes, you did include it, (thanks!) , and I copied it and proofread it. As a 
mentioned in another post the required mpgraph* files are created but they 
are devoid of meaningful content.  Here is a sample:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 0 0
%%Creator: MetaPost
%%CreationDate: 2002.05.14:1139
%%Pages: 1
%%EndProlog
%%Page: 1 1
%%HiResBoundingBox: 0 0 0 0
showpage
%%EOF

All of them are like this. 

Either I have left out something vital or included something harmful.
Only by comparing my source file with your source file can I figure out
which. I tried switching to a font that I know works, changing colors etc.

In the same document the flowcharting works without flaw. 

Thanks for any help!
