dwanthny:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. I'm very limited when it comes to HTML code though.

I've achieved my original goal of getting the file in ePub format via a very round about method. I tried several converters, and finally got the whole file in a form I could deal with using mobi2html.exe. I then viewed the file with Firefox, copies it to the clipboard, and then pasted it as RTF into Word. I could have skipped the Word step, but I decided to do a little formatting before moving on to Calibre for conversion to ePub.
I suspect there must be a more efficient way to achieve my end goal, but at least this worked.

Although I've got my ePub file, I still intend to troubleshoot the original problem because I'd rather not have to go through the multistep process.
