hi,
i'm using the new bash 2.04 release and it doesn't seem to be reading my
.bash_profile file -- am i doing something wrong? (i didn't use the file
until just a few minutes ago so the problem didn't occur until just now!).
thank you,

If a man says something in a forest, and there are no
women around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Halim,
I usually put a sequence like the following in my .bash_profile:
<EXAMPLE>
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ] source ~/.bashrc
</EXAMPLE>
Don't include the pseudo-tags. Hope that helps.

You have to start bash as a 'login' shell to have it read
~/.bash_profile
like this:
