This is problem one.  Everything that I have downloaded has a suffix of 
.graffle  .  Again, all of the stencils that I am trying to add came 
from the Extra's page.

OmniGraffle does NOT create these directories for me.  Neither under 
the main /Library or under the users home directory. I have to create 
this directory space manually.  I discussed this in more detail in my 
reply to David Remahl. This may (or may not) be issue 2.

This is probably the biggest issue that I have.  I do NOT have a tools 
menu.  I do not have a tools sub menu under any of the drop down 
menu's.  Can you confirm the version of OmniGraffle that you are using. 
  Per my about window, I am running:

OmniGraffle Pro 3.0 (v56.1)

Which I downloaded from the OmniGroup web site yesterday.  The 
available drop down menu's that I do have are as follows:

OmniGraffle Pro
File
Edit
View
Format
Arrange
Inspectors
Stencils
Window
Scripts
Help

I would expect that after I have added my new stencils to the correct 
directory then started the application, that I would see my new 
stencils under the Stencil main drop down menu.

Once again, thank you for your comments,

Jerry K
