well first to crinrict, the you was not directed at you personally, sorry, it was toward EA, second to jacqpinks, this is the only game I have ever had that had an issue with a save file, sure patches mess up the game itself, but the save file shouldn't be touched till it is saved again, and I have not saved since the issue started.
anyways, I post again bearing an error, thank you for the suggestion of the error trap. here is the error:

unable to delete that building, or move my home to the bin, but everything else in the "edit town mode" works as in deleting other lots, just my active home lot and this tavern are effected, I think if I can remove that building, then I might be able to save this, any ideas? it is too late for me to work on this further tonight.
